Hello. At first I would like to say that I am a bit new to gentoo ant linux, though I've tried to install Gentoo several times and i did succeed. But now I have so problems, after deciding to try Gentoo again :)
I did an install 3 times. At first I thought I've made a mistake. Second time i thought that it was something with reiserfs, coz' reiserfsprogs did not emerged. But when I formated my disk ext3 and it showed me error again...
I can make system not read-only by "mount -o remount,rw /" command.
My fstab is here

www.satela.lt/~apilipavicius/fstab (now it's ext3, not reiserfs)

Compilation error

www.satela.lt/~apilipavicius/build.log

If You need additional info, just tell me.

P.S. My eyes are not so fast to tell You what errors show when the system is starting up :)

1.) to see what happend at start-up, take a look at
Code:

cat /var/log/everything/current

2.) from what I can imagine what happen, your kernel setup isn't right. did you compile in reiserfs and ext2 support?

Yes, I have compiled reiserfs into my kernel. ext2. Don't U think that if I did not compile them to kernel I would not be able to mount it by typing "mount -o remount,rw/"?

And there is no such file /var/log/everything/current, becouse, I think, as the system is read-only, it can't write that file

wait, you want to make it read-only or read-write?

in case you want to have it readonly, use the option ro, not rw, this option can be added to the /etc/fstab to

I don't want to make it ro, it's already ro, though i did not put anything in fstab to do so.

From the beggining: when I start the system and log in as a root the system is read-only. Why is so and how do I change that
