I did a stage1-install,gentoo 2005.0 on a amd 64. Everything seemed to be allright. Except that I cannot login as root after booting the new gentoo. I tried it with passwd after chrooting to my root-partition from the installationcd.Allso I tried to blank out the root-entry from /etc/shadow to :::::: The same things I tried after booting in single-usermode. In any case Iget 'login incorrect' when I try to login as root into my new installation.
The weird thing is that I can create a user account and set a password for it in the chrooted envirenment. So I can only login as user and not as root.
I forgot something silly? Or I better do it over with par exemple stage3?
