 Install problem I installed Gentoo on a laptop without any problems, however after installing on a second computer, reboot failed. When configuring grub, I misspelled part of the kernel which meant grub was unable to boot. Is there a way to get back into the install and correct without having to re-install? -- Colyn Goodson http://home.swbell.net/colyng http://www.colyngoodson.com      |

If you can enter Grub to see the list of available kernels, then press the "down arrow" key quickly to abort the countdown to automatically load the default kernel. Then, you can edit the entries using the "e" key before booting them. These edits are not permanent. |
