A few errors when I try to boot

[HungryMan]

Any idea how I managed to break my Ubuntu? lol cause right now I have an Ubuntu I can't use for anything useful and a Gentoo I can't boot into =p

edit: FYI for "Firmware blobs root directory" it just says "firmware" is this correct?

edit: changed to /lib/firmware and that solved it

[HungryMan]

OK. Two things.

1) The kernel still went to /x86/boot/whatever

I'm on 64bit

I tried coping it over anyways and now the only error I get on boot is the:
EXT3-fs (sda4):error:couldn't blah blah blah

but the system still isn't booting up

edit: OK, I did the same thing btu with the x86_64 kernel (found it i guess) but it's the same error and i cant boot up

Yeah I mount /mnt/gentoo to /dev/sda4, which is a separate partition.

I can't even get CLI in ubuntu since trying to use GDM instead of lightdm.

Not sure if I can even continue lol

edit: I can get cli nevermind.

[HungryMan]

I'm actually thinking of just giving up lol do you think it would take much time longer to get it working? I'm already going to have to reinstall Ubuntu.

[HungryMan]

Eh. Maybe. It'll probably screw up GRUB for me again.

HungryMan,

The only thing I can think of pertaining to breaking ubuntu - is it possible you unpacked the stage3 tarball in the wrong place

Good luck

Since installing gentoo, my life has become one long emerge

[HungryMan]

I unpacked it to /mnt/gentoo and then mounted /dev/ and /proc/ to it, which I guess is what broke it.

Either way I had to give up. I'd love to use Gentoo but... days to get something installed can't really be worth it lol

I had installed Gentoo's grub but in a chain. Ubuntu could boot up but it was broken - no GUI.

I gave up though and reformatted lol thanks for all of the help
