Greetings! In short no, you are the installer.
Try genkernel and worry about making a custom kernel latter. That will also resolve any problems about a separate /usr and /var might be causing.

you could supply us the error message you get, when trying to merge your kernel. so we could help you find out, why the compilation doesn't work. |

Our crystal balls are all broken (might be a compilation problem). As such, to help you, we need detailed error messages and an exact description of where you were in the install when you experienced this "failure".

@likewhoa,
Don't waste your breath on botdotcom.
He's been pestering this forum for an installer because he can't stand/handle the command line.
Gerard.

Try one of pappy's seeds cachorro links to in his sig. It's really not that much of a challenge to get your own kernel up and running. Except the first one (which was done by a friend) I configured all my kernels myself - ok, and one with the help of a seed.

I dont exactly know what you mean by dirty and / or "use the kernel on livedvd", but you should be able to boot the livedvd and then chroot from the livedvd into your gentoo system.
When you are in there, you can start compiling your kernel.
This is not dirty at all, I do it all the time 
If I am not mistaken (and I am not an expert at all), the following commands should do this for you (run as root):
| Code: |
mkdir /mnt/gentoo
mount /dev/{your gentoo root partition} /mnt/gentoo
mkdir /mnt/gentoo/boot
mount /dev/{your gentoo boot partition} /mnt/gentoo/boot
mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc
mount --rbind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
env-update
source /etc/profile
cd /usr/src/linux
make menuconfig
|
This is all taken from the gentoo handbook, and doing it this exact way has done it for me countless times.
Good Luck

Not recommended. Here's the solution to your other problems:
- Get back into the chroot per previous instructions.
- Install wgetpaste
| Code: | | emerge -v wgetpaste |
which will paste log files and such to the web easily.
Then provide the requested information. For instance | Code: | | emerge --info | wgetpaste |
and then just write down the reported URL and post it here.While you're at it, could you post the name of the stage3 tarball you used and the output of please?

mind33, I think I have a solution to your issue. If you're still willing to try, write back and we can continue.

This is a good way to install, will teach you much.
Why not try another cd to do the install, any linux cd will work for installing gentoo. I like the system rescue cd, is handy to have around for other needs.
Many reasons to use a alternative cd for installation, sometimes for wireless drivers, but the bonus is you get firefox to read the manual and come here and ask questions and can post answers.
lets say you use a ubuntu cd, when you get to the part in the handbook where it says /mnt/gentoo, it will complain that /mnt/gentoo does not exist.
mkdir /mnt/gentoo
done, just follow the handbook as normal, system rescue is gentoo based and will not run into this. At this point, instead of giving up, just boot another cd and chroot back into your install and get er done  |
