This might be a short blog entry but it’s due to the fact that I’m posting from links while attempting to install Gentoo. I have tried to boot into Gentoo but I keep getting an error where it’s detecting USB ports and then fails. It is successful with the first 2 ports but then hangs. Also, while booting, it says that I’m using the ext3 filesystem for root but I am using Reiser. I have edited /etc/fstab to have reiserfs as root but it doesn’t seem to recognize it. Anybody have ideas why this is happening? (Peter, Derek, other Gentoo users?) I started from the Stage 1 tarball and installation went smoothly so I’m confused as to why I am getting this problem.
