I would advise you to go through and follow the handbook using the command line in the livecd environment. The livecd can be buggy and personally, I like to know EXACTLY what is being done to my system. It's good to know if something is my fault or theirs.
As per your X server woes, there is a great howto on gentoo's site. Good luck! On 2/21/07, Scott W. McMikle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I have used Mandriva and Kubuntu and several other distributions before I thought I would give Gentoo a try because I like to tweak and learn more about Linux. The live cd works great on my machine, but when I attempted to install Gentoo on that same machine, X does not work, nor does my network connection. I have tried the Gentoo handbook, but I am unable to find the answers to solve my problems. I have found myself quickly over my head and now I begin to wonder if I am not quite ready for Gentoo. What would you all recommend?
