[gentoo-user] Re enter chroot install
Hello, I have a installation that did not complete successfully. I need to re enter the chroot environment, using a install cd. For argue purposes, let's assume the hard drive is formatted exactly as the example in the handbook. All I want to do is emerge an older kernel and compile it. According to what I glean from the handbook, these are the minimal steps to re enter the chroot environment after a failed reboot: # mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/gentoo # mkdir /mnt/gentoo/boot # mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/gentoo/boot # mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc # mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev # chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash # env-update # source /etc/profile # export PS1=(chroot) $PS1 Anything else I missed? Any of the above steps that are not necessary? James -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
