In chapter "Installing the kernel and a System Logger" there is a note that sais: """ It is vital that a gentoo=notmpfs flag be added to the kernel line in /boot/grub/grub.conf for the 2.2 kernel so that a ramdisk is mounted for the boot scripts instead of tmpfs. """ This should read something like """ It is vital that a gentoo=notmpfs flag be added to the kernel line in /boot/grub/grub.conf or to the append line in /etc/lilo.conf for the 2.2 kernel so that a ramdisk is mounted for the boot scripts instead of tmpfs.
