Hi,
I build by gentoo kernel without genkernel, and I want to create the
initramfs by hand. Following is the steps I did:
Build the kernel with initramfs support;
mkdir -p /usr/src/initramfs{dev,bin,sbin,etc,root,proc,sys}
cp -aL /bin/bb /usr/src/initramfs/bin # copy the busybox
cp -a /sbin/lvm /
Thank you for the useful advice. One more question will help: does the new
kernel support ath5k out of the box on an install?
Perhaps I can just edit the existing /etc/fstab, using device names. The
device numbering is inconsistent between GNU/Linux distros under the (what I
presume to be) new

Thanks,

You need to emerge xorg-server.

I didn't say anything about my hardware. The main hiccough, installing
gentoo, has been the ath5k module, which was at one time, I think, ath_pci.
Newer kernels may support this out of the box, in a gentoo install. Beside
that, dual monitors are working with the nvidia drivers.
Another problem,
Just curious. The fluxbox ebuild doesn't emerge xorg-server which
means I now have a machine with fluxbox emerged but I don't know how
to start it as there is no xstart on the machine.
What would be the lightest way to get X running right now? man
startfluxbox suggests fluxbox can be started from

You can certainly overlook maintenance with Gentoo, and mainly do
security updates only. The problem is that Gentoo is in a

x11-proto/glproto perhaps
Sensible? What's that?
I think if my use has been beyond sensible, it's mainly in one or two areas:
I keep alot of software installed; and I keep up to date on a number of
programs (this is an area where I may need to redefine "sensible" from my
own perspective).
I keep this box set up for a wid
Hi,
As part of emerge @world mesa isn't building. It complains (I
think) about a missing GL/glxproto.h file.
Anyone know where this file is supposed to come from?
