Hey guys, |
| 2 |
till now I was just a silent reader of some topics, but now I could need |
| 3 |
your help. |
| 4 |
I recently did a 'emerge -avuDN --with-bdeps/=y --complete=graph world' |
| 5 |
(hope the term with --with-bdeps is correct, writing from memory). I saw |
| 6 |
that I got new gentoo-sources. |
| 7 |
I was runnig with 4.0.5, the latest is of course 4.1.15-r1. So I decided |
| 8 |
to upgrade my kernel. I started with eselect kernel set 4.1.15-r1 (the |
| 9 |
number for it). Then 'cd /usr/src/linux/ && make menuconfig'. I sorted |
| 10 |
out a few filesystems I didn't need, but thats all. |
| 11 |
After I saved the .config file, I did 'make && make modules_install && |
| 12 |
make install' like it is written in the handbook. |
| 13 |
Last but not least I wanted to create a new GRUB entry with |
| 14 |
'grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg'. I thought I did all steps but |
| 15 |
after a reboot, I ran into a kernel panic (Not syncing rootfs, IIRC). |
| 16 |
Following a tutorial to be able to boot again, I had a look at my grub.cfg. |
| 17 |
All those grub.cfg's I saw on the wiki had a short and relativeley easy |
| 18 |
to understand syntax. But my grub.cfg is full of things I probably won't |
| 19 |
need. |
| 20 |
I thought it could have been my fault, because i removed some fs while |
| 21 |
building the kernel, so i tried it again, but this time with genkernel. |
| 22 |
But the same thing happened again. |
| 23 |
I now wrote a grub.cfg by my self with all the information I needed. |
| 24 |
In this wiki article is an example of a grub.cfg file, which I used as a |
| 25 |
reference. |

| 27 |
After rebooting again, I noticed, that my grub entries did not change. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Is there anything I did wrong or should try?? |
| 30 |
Also, why is there such a complicated 'new' grub layout? Haven't done |
| 31 |
much with until now. |
| 32 |
Thanks for your precious time :) |
