First time running Gentoox in a long while
Posted: Thu Oct 01, 2009 10:52 pm
I have downloaded Gentoox Pro v5.0
I have a softmoded xbox v1.6 with a 250g hdd and usb for keyboard and mouse
I tryed to install by cd and ftp and they both work. I do not want to do a native install. I have selected to use my F:\ drive. Now when i run gentooxx.xbe it will bring me the the launcher. Now this is where i get confused. I remember probably 3 years ago my friend sent me the link to download gentoo or gentoox and when i got to this screen, i could just run linux, but now i tryed every app i can ( boot from cd, FATX, web boot and advanced) and nothing really works ( i am on dial up so i know that is why the web options dont work ) The closest i think i get is when i run FATX then gentoox it will load a bunch of stuff. I assume that everything loads ok because it will ask me to log in. i put in the defult username (root) and the password (xbox) then nothing happens. I can enter in commands but i dont know any to boot linux.
I also do have Gentoox Home v7 but i get the same thing, but when i run FATX, i get an error saying that my "/dev/hda2 no such file or directory. So if anyone could guide me threw this or link me to a guide i will be very thankful
Also i have tryed to search but i could not find anything simmular
