I don't believe I can actually answer this one. I'm a "noob" to Gentoo! |

If you used genkernel to install, you kernel is as you stated above, |
| 24 |
but your initrd file isn't what's stated in the Handbook. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
The correct initrd file is: |
| 27 |
initramfs-genkernel-x86-2.6.12-gentoo-r6 |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
I had trouble with this on first install too! :-) |
