Blank screen after selecting boot option in Gentoo (Just installed)
Hi, I have just installed Gentoo. First I tried GenKernel to generate the kernel, configured GRUB, and booted fine. Just reinstalled Gentoo, compiling the kernel manually, configured GRUB, but when I boot from grub into gentoo, all I get is a blank screen (actually, no output from gfx card, as monitor shows an orange LED). Anyone have any ideas?
Any info would be great, Buck Oh yeh, and does anyone know a way to autoselect the options in menuconfig that are needed by your hardware, such as drivers etc.. Bit like GenKernel, but not so heavyweight) Cheers, Buck |
Mmmmm - if you want auto-magic, Gentoo probably ain't for you.
Blank screen is probably framebuffer issues - check the following to start with Code:
# Graphics support Maybe you should wander over and have a look at forums.gentoo.org - plenty of good people/info there. |
Fixed it, I was specifying graphics resolution settings in kernel parameters, which, when I removed, cleared the error :)
