I then did make clean make && make modules_install and then a Gentoo command: modules-rebuild -X rebuild to pick up any package modules that need to be rebuild when I use a new kernel. (X drivers, vmware, etc.) The kernel boots fine: mark@c2stable ~ $ uname -a Linux c2stable 2.6.34-gentoo-r1 #4 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jul 6 10:35:15 PDT 2010 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU X 980 @ 3.33GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux mark@c2stable ~ $ I don't know what I'm looking for in the dmesg files but I do see one message about a SATA Link being down. Files attached. Cheers, Mark
