This should mean that the | Quote: | | root=/dev/sd?? or real_root=/dev/sd?? (if genkernel was used) |
line in the grub.conf is pointed to a wrong but readable partition.
boot the cd, mount the gentoo partitions, run | Code: | | ls /mnt/gentoo/sbin/init |
will return /mnt/gentoo/sbin/init if you have one in the correct place. Running should provide enough to identify the root partition.
If more help is desired post the results of:
| Code: | ls /mnt/gentoo
ls /mnt/gentoo/sbin/init
df -h
fdisk -l
cat /mnt/gentoo/etc/fstab
cat /mnt/gentoo/boot/grub/grub.conf |
