Hi,

i emerged kdebase-meta:4.4 , updated the config files as suggested (including udev config files..)
then i did a reboot and got the following error:

Code:

fsck.ext3: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/sda3

/dev/sda3:
The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:

e2fsck -b 8193 <device>

* filesystem could not be fixed.



I already visited this thread: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-424087-start-0.html and tried the suggested solutions..
Unfortunatly it didn't work!

Some more data would be very useful.
Get a liveCD if necessary to obtain this information

Code:
fdisk -l
cat /etc/fstab
cat /boot/grub/grub.conf
emerge --info

A list of the things you tried from the linked thread and what happened when you tried them would also be most helpful.
Edit: When was the last time you did a larger update? If it's been a while, then perhaps you're update of KDE pulled systems-related packages as well.

Hi,
okay here is the output:

MikeG1,

Check your kernel
Code:
[ ] enable deprecated sysfs features to support old userspace tools
must be off.
Fix, rebuild and reinstall your kernel if you find that is on now.

Ok, thx..
Sorry for the dumb question... how do I check for
Code:
[ ] enable deprecated sysfs features to support old userspace tools
??
And what do you mean by "rebuild and reinstall"? Do you mean a complete recompilation?

On a more general note:
I just tried to install KDE.. Since KDE is a common piece of Software why do I have to go through all these troubles. Especially since I chosse the "KDE"-Profile from eselect



THX Mike

You just have to recompile your kernel. Have a look here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-840485.html

In case you are using genkernel a recent LiveCD might help you, but I haven't tried it.
