Description Matthias May 2005-05-17 02:37:31 UTC

i followed the handbook's instructions installing my gentoo with a 2.6 kernel. 
but my first boot failed, my harddisk couldn't be mounted. 
i fixed it by adding devfs=nomount gentoo=udev to my grub.conf . 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.install gentoo using 2.6 kernel 
2.configure the kernel without genkernel 
3. 
 
Actual Results:  
my harddisk could not be mounted, boot failed 

Expected Results:  
add devfs=nomount gentoo=udev to my grub.conf

Was it with genkernel-generated kernel, or manually built?
