So grub loads abd boots the Linux kernel, but the
kernel can't mount the
root FS on /dev/sda6. So /dev/sda6 doesn't exist for
some reason, which
could be one of:
1) There is no /dev/sda6 partition
Huh? I just installed gentoo there.
2) You haven't compiled in support for your SATA
This means the kernel cannot mount your root
partition (/dev/sda6 IS the
correct setting for root). Either your root
partitions's filesystem is
not compiled into your kernel or you have not added
support for your SATA
controller. These must be compiled into the kernel,
I realize that.

something?
yes you forgot to make the kernel and forgot to
install the kernel and
reboot.
Didn't forget. Those are obvious steps and not worth mentioning.

Hello everyone,
The ATI FAQ recommends compiling module unloading into
the kernel, which I did.

Try using 'modprobe -rnv module' and see what

rmmod

Module unloading support is optional. You want to
enable it in your kernel config.

That's one way. Perl-cleaner can also be found in
/usr/portage/dev-lang/perl/files.
#perl-cleaner allmodules
did the deed. Thanks Holly. BTW, where are these
modules and how do they differ from the ones residing
under /lib/modules?

a fixboot from the recovery mode of the WinXP CD
will be necessary.
This should not overwrite the MBR, only the boot
loader that is at the
beginning of the windows partition.
The problem was two-fold:
1. WinXP boot sector was bad(my best guess).
2. Recovery Console suffered from obscure
