LOL I thought you would say something like that.

The only thing is, this is a native install & I don't have Linux on any other machine. Oh well I guess I am stuffed. If only I could get to a command prompt.

That's life I guess

okay I renamed vmlinuz.old to vmlinuz and rebooted and it still gets stuck on that error. I tried ctrl+c but it does not break out the loop.

I only ran etc-update after I ran emerge -u world and this was a week or 2 ago. My Gentoox has been working fine since then. including network. I think my kernal has been upgraded before as I also have a vmlinuz2 file on my e drive. I can boot into evox and I can rename vmlinuz.old back again, but I...

Okay I tried the Kernal upgrade but I have a problem. My Pro install is all up to date i.e. emerge -u world. I ran magic and the kernal seemed to install okay. At the first reboot it said it was going to carry out some tests. This is where I have a problem!! My screen now says :- An error occurred.....

LOL is there an echo around here!!!

Hi dr_flubber,

I am new as well so I don't know if this will help or is what you want. But I installed MySQL and mod_php at the same time by following this.

Sorry if I am way off base here.

In one of the tutorials on this site. It tells you some of the files you should not update with etc-update. After updating all the software on your system (using emerge –up world), or after updating portage you should always run etc-update and update all the required .cfgs – you will be presented wi...

If you copied the contents of the distro.iso to e you are all set (no need to install) If on the other hand you want to run Stardust as an installer burn the stardust.iso to cdr-w and boot that. I have installed both pro & home (many times in the last couple of days :lol: ) by just copying over ...
