Het guys, having some issues. Ive been trying for days to follow the Gentoo handbook for installing to amd64 systems. I've attempted many of their methods even resorting to genkernel and all basic install settings. But After I reboot grub presents me with grub> I direct it to the kern and it follows through to boot but once it's detecting my hardware I think that is where is just stops loading through the rest of the boot process.
i was hoping to maybe get some insider advice or some one may have the same issue. also if anyone could give me an example of a partition scheme that would be considered for a build that is minimal and fast I would really be thankful for that as I am having trouble understanding LVM and the use of /var and /tmp on seperate partitions with different FS's to handle them. If you need more info ill respond back quickly. Thank you
