 Posted: Fri Feb 17, 2012 12:53 pm Post subject: How should I configure the kernel??HELP!! |
 |
|
I installed gentoo in the vmplayer several day .But when I tried to install in my mobile hard disk for HP g4-1057tu,it always failed.
When booted it would go into blackscreen soon,although the same configuration in the vmplayer worked well.
Here is the cpuinfo:

First, kernel configs are LONG, so use pastebin or something similar.
Second, please check out the "seeds mirror" link in my sig. Even if it doesn't directly solve your problem, reading the kernel seed guide and using a seed will vastly improve your kernel.

| Thank you for your advice,because the livecd can't support the wifi of my laptop,I have to use "cat /proc/cpuinfo > /usr/cpuinfo " to save the information of those and then switched to windows to post it. |

It is possible to install gentoo in a mobile hard disk. I have installed gentoo in a pen-drive. You will have to take care of the boot sequence (as you would do with a pen drive). Also, it would be nice if you edit your first message and delete all the kernel options: it is difficult to arrive to the end of the thread, as audiodev has pointed out.
Cheers!

You might want to try systemrescuecd - it has better networking support

Good Luck

|
|
When even I install a new Gentoo system I always execute `zcat /proc/config.gz >> /etc/kernels/config` from the Gentoo boot minimal ISO CD I am installing from, and later use the config file as the base of my first genkernel configuration of the kernel.
And I also execute `more /proc/cpuinfo |grep flags>>/etc/make.conf` then change the "flags :" to "USE=". |

What exactly are you trying to achieve with that command? USE-flags (in general) have absolutely nothing to do with CPU flags.
And those few that do, can normally handled by hand: mmx, sse, sse2 (provided that they are not already covered by the profile).
ok - 3dnow needs a little work.

Just makes it easier. Then you don't have to go looking for them all. And the ones that aren't part of USE-flags Gentoo just ignores. Also with more advance CPU's more and more CPU-flags are being used in USE-flags like sse3. |

just adding a "++" for this documentation.
very good reading for kernel configuring newbies, and just in general.

I just though so.
But exactly sse3 will not be covered by that method, as it is called pni on the cpu. and if you are referring to ssse3, that is another flag.
