After getting most of gentoo installed is gives a long warning message about a /devhs or something filesystem not being compiled into my kernel. When i do a make menuconfig i dont see that option anywhere on the list. when i do a make xconfig on a different machine i can see the option but it is greyed out. someone help me please???

...and make sure you turn on "Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers" under "Code maturity level options".

You need to go to:
Code maturity level options
and check on:
Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers

for devfs to appear.

One mayor piece of advice:
Print this:

read the part about kernel setup, and you'll know all you need to know.!
