Hello.
I've installed gentoo as it's recommended by the handbook. After configuring bootloader i'd got a problem after reboot:
grub is started, I choose my gentoo, it reads the kernel file, reads initramfs file and my screen turns off, whilst PC continues working. I'm trying to ping my gentoo system from another pc, it does not respond too.
I used genkernel and grub-legacy.

That's the last I see before it goes down:

Code:
Booting 'Gentoo Linux 3.12.21'

root (hd0,1)
Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-3.12.21-gentoo-r1 root=/dev/sda4
[Linux-bzImage, setup=0x3c00, size=0x60e430]
initrd /boot/initramfs-genkernel-x86-3.12.32-gentoo-r1
[Linux-initrd @ 0x37cd7000, 0x3182fc bytes]

genkernel does not always setup graphics or networking support correctly. boot the livecd/usb, mount the gentoo partitions, run
Code:
wgetpaste /mnt/gentoo/usr/src/linux/.config
wgetpaste /mnt/gentoo/etc/portage/make.conf
lspci -k | wgetpaste
post the url's returned. if a radeon or nvidia video card will you be running oem or open source video drivers?

since I've found and downloaded an oem driver for my video card, I'd use it. But first of all, I'd like to have my system up with any driver +) Thanks.

exit saving configuration, if genkernel exit saving configuration allow genkernel to complete, if not genkernel,
Code:
make && make modules_install && make install
check that names in /boot match those in boot menu
r8169 is selected in the kernel config which is correct. run ifconfig to determine the interface name, usually en____ , run
Code:
ls -l /etc/init.d/net*
check for symlink
Quote:
/etc/init.d/net.<interface name> -> net.lo
and file
Code:
/etc/init.d/net.lo
run
Code:
rc-update show
check for net.lo in boot runlevel and net.<interface name> in default run level and dhcp not in any runlevel. emerge dhcpcd or dhcp if not already done.
reboot.
if you have a terminal, run
Code:
 ifconfig -a
, does the kernel see the interface?
Code:
ifconfig
is the interface up?
Add VIDEO_CARDS="radeon" INPUT_DEVICES="evdev" to /etc/portage/make.conf before emerge xorg-server
