Having problems with the Gentoo Handbook? If you're still working your way through it, or just need some info before you start your install, this is the place. All other questions go elsewhere.

After the install, i rebooted the system and get a kernel panic. error as follows:
Warning: unable to open an initial console.
Kernel panic: no init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.

any ideas?

I bet that would help a lot if you provided extra-informations as for example your kernel .config and possibly grub.conf
