ok so I got this cheap intel integrated mboard and built this system just to give Gentoo a shot.
everything is pretty standard fare, the 1.4 iso boots fine finds the network card dhcpcd....etc.
All is not well!
emerge the kernel sources cause the stage3 tarball didn't come with a kernel. (is this data loss?)
Ok no worries, downloaded kernel sources, make menuconfig. We've all done it before....
Make dep....ok
Make clean.....ok
Make bzimage.....no target to make bzimage
OK...
Make install......error2..."no lilo"
ok...
cp vmlinuz to /boot
make modules......ok
make modules install......."no lilo"
no /lib/modules
I am going to try just cp'ing the kernel from the iso image but I am going to have to build a kernel at some point.
Anybody???????javascript:emoticon(%278O%27)

thanks......uuh ....blush...blush...I uh knew that.
I just kept thinking I couldn't be wrong on the lower vs upper case cause that's the way they wrote it in the install doc.

the full code I always use is:

make dep && make clean bzImage && make modules && make modules_install

A bit untidy but old habits die hard
