Hi Ted,
Thanks for your advice. But still could not proceed.
Steps taken as follows;
After executing 't' 'a' and 'w' commands, partition table looks as
follow:
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hde1 * 1 9 72261 83 Linux
/dev/hde2 10 72 506047+ 82 Linux swap
/dev/hde3 73 4866 38507805 83 Linux
Repeated following steps;
# swapon /dev/hde2
# cd /mnt/gentoo
# tar -xvjpf /mnt/cdrom/stages/stage1-x86-20030726.tar.bz2
- Entering the chroot
# mount -t proc proc /mnt/gentoo/proc
# cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/resolv.conf
(Overwrite)
# chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
Illegal instruction
Could not proceed further. Kindly advise.
Thanks in advance
B.Regards
Stephen
