I just upgraded to gentoo-sources-3.3.0 and my laptop wants me to hit ctrl-D to continue on every boot. How do I kill this ctrl-D holdup so it boots normally?

(Laptop boots without errors after hitting ctrl-D. There's nothing wrong with my setup other than this stupid ctrl-D holdup.)

What does it print before it asks you to press Ctrl-D?

I get:

Code:

Mounting /dev/pts ...
Mounting /dev/shm ...
Setting system clock using the hardware clock [UTC] ...
Give root password for maintenance
(or type Control-D to continue):


No errors. It just stops here until I enter root pw or ctrl-D. Ctrl-D results in the boot continuing normally, again with no errors, starting with module loading.

The twilight zone belongs on TV. Not on my laptop.

1. What init system are you using? openrc? Then what is the output of
Code:
grep -v '^#' /etc/rc.conf | grep -v '^$'


2. What is your boot command?
Code:
cat /proc/cmdline

Issuing cat /proc/cmdline brought my attention to a typo: I'd left out a "title" before one of my boot options. The second boot option had the "single" option and without "title", grub read on through the second option. :oops:
