The Gentoo Basic Installation CD is quite buggy. Just a few errors noticed while starting:
1. "/proc/splash: No such file or directory" 2. The bash history buffer is full of commands issued by the developer Okay, 1. and 2. where rather cosmetic, the stopping issues are really annoying: Rebooting or halting "doesn't work" (tested on a Acer Laptop, IBM NetVista and a VMware host). It hangs at various stages: "stopping USB and PCI hotplugging" or while shutting down the "lo" interface. A test installation under VMware went successfully until the final reboot: "/sbin/rc: line 151: /bin/sync: No such file or directory" "/sbin/rc: line 151: /bin/sync: No such file or directory" "/sbin/rc: line 1: /prc/cmdline: No such file or directory" "/sbin/rc: line 153: /sbin/sulogin: No such file or directory" "/sbin/rc: line 151: /sbin/reboot: No such file or directory" So it's not possible to reboot a freshly installed Gentoo box successfully at all! Sorry, what happened? RC4 was perfect... Thorsten -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
