Re: [gentoo-user] Problem on booting after installation.

[Stephen Liu]

Hi Barry,

Thanks for your response

Did you edit your grub.conf (fairly well documented in the installation
docs)?  Looks like you used the dummy default version.
 

Yes.  I followed the installation instruction to edit 
/boot/grub/grub.conf with 'nano' editor.  Maybe I have done something 
wrong there.  Unfortunately the boot disk also can't boot the new 
system.  Kindly advise how to start the system to re-edit 
/boot/grub/grub.conf other than to boot up the new system with CD1

Thanks in advance.

B.R.
