If you follow the howto on the wiki you should get it working easily. I used |
| 67 |
that howto following the roll your own kernel build version (I never use |
| 68 |
genkernel) on about a dozen machines with varying hardware configurations |
| 69 |
and have always had success, it just takes some work sometimes. |
