=== kernel: 2.6.16-ck12 #3 PREEMPT (ck-sources) sys-apps/baselayout-1.11.15-r3 USE="static unicode -bootstrap -build" === I use the same kernel on my desktop and never had this problem.However I have to say there's a big difference between the desktop and the problematic PC. While the PC has a plain setup - only 1 hdd with only 1 partition (hda1), the desktop has its root on a 2-disk software raid0. So the desktop mounts /dev/md0 preliminary, then xfs recovery takes place if needed, and "switchroot /sysroot" is made at the end. Hmmmm...witting this email I think an idea occurred to me...:) What stops me make the same way of booting on the problematic PC? Well, this would be a workaround again while I prefer a straight solution. -- Best regards, Daniel -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
