Hi guys. I have tried for the second time to compile my kernel. I received the same error again.
From the log:
Code:

What can be wrong? Any help would be great :)

I don't understand why genkernel wants to compile busybox at all. You can just use the busybox binary that Gentoo provides (you do have to compile it with USE="static -dynamic" though). Same with binaries for cryptsetup and lvm. Building an initrd by yourself that supports all sorts of stuff (encrypted hard disk, lvm volumes) takes only 5 minutes and you don't have to compile anything for it.

Sorry that this doesn't help at all with your current problem though. Just ditch genkernel if it does not work.
