The default genkernel kernel config is designed to use the initrd/initramfs it configures. You could be brave, and use the --bootloader=grub option to genkernel too. Backup and remove your current grub.conf first, and make absolutely sure there is only one line in your fstab that contains the phrase "[:space:]/[:space:]", it's a bug I've notice that I should submit to bugzilla. If it works, you'll automatically have a properly configured grub.conf, that can also be automatically updated by genkernel for any new kernels! -- Mike Williams -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
