Hello everyone, I'm new too gentoo.
While installing it I came across a problem, this happens every time I boot without live CD.
| Code: | root(hd0,0)
Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
kernel /boot/kernel-genkernel-x86-3.10.7-gentoo-r5 root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc ramdisk=8192 real_root=/dev/sda3
Error 15:File not found |
Any help would be appreciated guys! |

Actually just read similar thread and its not worth all the effort I'll just re-install and try to install grub 2 this time.
Wish me luck! |

well, good luck!
But that error just says that grub can't find the kernel on /boot/kernel-genkernel-x86-3.10.7-gentoo-r5. Maybe it is misspelled or not on the first partition (0,0) or you miss the /boot symlink on the boot partition or something like that. So just boot the livecd, mount the boot patrition and watch out for the kernel-file-(name) and the boot symlink. correct grub.conf and you should be fine....
But you can never get enough practice with installing from scratch! 
Cheers
