Hi Everyone, I hope someone will be able to "lead me by the nose" here.
For a number of weeks now, I have been trying to install Gentoo on my new desktop. I kept running into issues and due to time constraints when I was installing, I put off trying to resolve them. Today, I went through the install process, had a couple of issues, but was able to figure them out and got to the point where I was supposed to boot into my new system. I got the boot menu, the boot process seemed to be okay, but when I got to the point where I assumed I should get a command prompt to finish up, all I got was a weird screen that was half black and half fuzzy with a bunch of colours (sorry, I can describe this any better). I tried recompiling the kernel thinking it was a problem that I had created during the initial compilation, but that ended with the same result. The computer is a Dell XPS 8300 It has a Radeon graphics card, but I wouldn't think this would be an issue until I tried to install X. Does anyone have any ideas?
