Hi,
suddenly might Gentoo system doesn't boot anymore, not normally, at
least.
I get 'root' needs non existing service 'fsck' but I've no idea why.
rc-update -u tells me about this, as well.
reemerging linux-utils and openrc didn't help.
/etc/init.d/fsck is a normal file which contents looks normally.
I can invoke /sbin/fsck.
I'm very grateful for any hints to get out of this,
By comparing my broken system to a recent backup it showed up there was
a new file
in /etc/ concerning an initramfs.
qfile showed that this file has been installed by genkernel.
It's unbelievable but just emerging genkernel broke my system though
I've never used it, yet.
Just emerge -C sys-kernel/genkernel
and my system was sane again.
Helmut.
