One of the things you might consider doing is jumping into the busybox |
| 15 |
shell and poking around /dev for the names of the devices you have. (I'm |
| 16 |
assuming you boot with grub - that's what those messages look like to |
| 17 |
me.) You might be able to "insmod" all your modules from there, too, and |
| 18 |
see if you get the devices installed. |

Roc, in one of your posts, you listed your grub.conf line and, according |
| 21 |
to the gmane entry, anyway, it looks like it's split across two lines. |
| 22 |
Could it be that simple? Is your grub.conf entry for the kernel command |
| 23 |
on just one line? (Genkernel added the entry so I'm obviously grabbing |
| 24 |
at straws here....) |
