A few months ago, my hard drive died. It is not recoverable. My new HD is a WD 250 gb and I did manage to install Gentoo with kernel 3.7.10. But I don't understand why I am unable to find things in the same place as they were on my older system. For example: /etc/make.conf does not exist. There is a make.conf in /etc/portage, however. I have attempted to reinstall Gentoo by deleting the partitions and going through the entire process, but no luck. Do I need to format the drive and then try again? Currently the system boots up with the splash screen where I can choose the version to load (side note: I cannot use the rescue version), but all I get is a command line allowing me to login as root. Just cannot get a gui to load. Obviously I've done something wrong, but I don't have a clue how to fix it. I am posting from my Macbook since I can't use links on my pc unless I boot with the livecd, so it is difficult to post the output of any code messages. I have to re-key everything. I am lost and confused after looking for problems similar to mine. Any suggestions?
Please help.
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
