you are missing the agetty application that is described in your /etc/inittab |
| 26 |
file. agetty belongs to sys-apps/util-linux, which you could reemerge by |
| 27 |
using your livecd and doing the chroot thing like when you installed. either |
| 28 |
that or you are playing with a new kernel, and forgot to compile support for |
| 29 |
the filesystem which /sbin is on. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Consider that init calls inittab as soon as the kernel is up, so if it stops, |
| 32 |
you will probably only see a few lines from the kernel on screen and not much |
| 33 |
else... is this what you are experiencing? |
