Sorry, I forogot to mention. I am using ReiserFS.
Thanks,

Hmm... Ok...
If you haven't (but I'm sure you have) emerge reiserfsprogs.
Then run a thorough check of that partition as it may be corrupt.

| the source of your init errors is gresecurity; you will have to reconfigure your kernel without it and recompile (I had to do the exact thing last night, and I am having the exact same errors you are after an emerge died, and I'm also using ReiserFS. Will be watching this post closely :/ |

So, where do I find gresecurity to disable it?

| boot from your gentoo installation disc, mount your hard drive and boot partition, chroot, go to /usr/src/linux, run make menuconfig, gresecurity is one of the last entries; set it to none, or alternatively, go through each sub-option under 'custom' and try to get it working. (I had used medium when I got those errors.) Once you change the configuration, follow your gentoo installation guide to finish compiling the kernel. (make dep && make clean ....; cp /boot/bzImage /boot/bzImage.old; cp /usr/src/..../bzImage /boot/bzImage) and you should be okay after that. |

Okay, I unemerged my vanilla-sources and emerged gentoo-sources. Then, I found grsecurity but, I didn't include it or anything. I configured my kernel, etc, but when I rebooted, it still gave me all that INIT stuff...
I think this is becoming too much trouble. I didn't have that much installed already. How can I just completely delete those partitions (w/o the information coming back) and reinstall gentoo?
Thanks,
Glenn |

mke2fs -j /dev/hdax (where x is your lucky number, but only if you want to use ext3)
mkreiserfs .... to do the reiser thing
