I tried to install a gentoo on a bi-opteron platform with the amd64 french or english installation documentation. From the beginning of the chroot part (chapter 6.a), near all the commands respond : /dev/null: No such file or directory. there's no effect since we arrived to the bootstrap.sh script which stop without answering anything ! So after chrooting, i made a /dev directory and a MAKEDEV generic and now it worked but it's not documented... Am i false. Thanks Pierre-yves Sorry for my english ;) Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
It _is_documented on both amd64.gentoo.org/technotes.xml and in the 2nd sticky forums thread (amd64 forums). This Bug does not apply to 2004.1! Fixed.
