Gentoo

Gentoo liveCD 2004.2 has problems with certain BIOSes. You can either grab the 2004.1 liveCD or get the 2004.2-try2 disk from the /experimental directory on any gentoo mirror.

If you'd prefer to get a floppy to boot from, I recommend tomsrtbt.

i dont have the live version i have the regular version.........so is it just this cd that isnt bootable (it says it isn't bootable from the directory where i got it) or is it all gentoo versions

There seem to be two similar threads going on here, so I'll reply to the other one

hey guys im havin one more error

im on compiling and installing the Kernal in the manual

make dep && make bzImage modules modules_install > i just typed that it installed the kernal but i got this error at the bottom

no rule to make target 'bzimage'. stop

so the next command im supposed to do is

cp arch/i386/boot/bzimage /boot/kernal-2.4.26-gentoo-r9 but it doesnt work because bzimage wasnt created

is this mandatory or can i skip this? and does anyone know how to fix it?
