  1. after new update refind-0.10.4-r1, it freeze on boot ( blank ). setting unchanged after refind-install.

    i have separate partiton for window bootloader /dev/sda2 and linux bootloader /dev/sda7.

    so , i emerge grub and successfully boot with funtoo linux, but win10.

    my /etc/boot.conf :

    boot {
        generate grub
        default "Funtoo Linux"
        timeout 3
    }
    display {
        gfxmode 1024x768
    }
    "Funtoo Linux" {
        kernel bzImage[-v]
    }
    "Funtoo Linux genkernel" {
        kernel kernel[-v]
        initrd initramfs[-v]
        params += real_root=auto rootfstype=auto
    }
    "Windows 10" {
        type win8
        params root=/dev/sda2
    }
    ----------------

    and in /boot/grub/grub.cfg

    ...

    menuentry "Windows 10" {
      insmod part_gpt
      insmod fat
      set root=(hostdisk//dev/sda,gpt2)
      search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set DCF9-67D7
      chainloader +4
    }

     

    when boot to window 10 - error incorrect path

    then i add  following lines to /etc/grub.d/40-custom

     

    menuentry "Windows 10" {
      insmod part_gpt
      insmod fat
      set root=(hostdisk//dev/sda,gpt2)
      search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set DCF9-67D7
      chainloader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
    }

     

    and try using boot-update ,not successd, it seems ignored grub settings.

    then i edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg

    add this  'chainloader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi' in menuentry windows 10, it work.

    i know it was not good idea to edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg, Did anyone know how to do?

     

  2. thank you for reply , Oleg.

    and i don't understand the purpose of using mix-ins.

    reason why i was confused to install gnome is that

    1. epro list ( show option gnome and  gnome-3.16-fixup )

    2. epro mix-ins +gnome ( i suppose it is version gnome-3.14 )

    3. emerge @world

    after all package emerged. fail to login ( some packages not install yet !)

    so

    4. emerge gnome

    after all packages emerged. sucess to login, but the version is gnome-3.16.

    my confusion arise

    in past if i want to install gnome, i just edit make.conf to add gnome USE flags and emerge gnome.

    if  i use mix-ins function , did i just install as above  ( 2 and 3 ) and command emerge gnome (4) is not necessary?

    or did the function mix-ins just easy way ( changing the USE flags) and i need to do as above ( 2 + 3 + 4 )?

     

    english is not my mother language, forgive me if my question is not clear enought. thx.

  3. Hi guys,

    Forgive me if this is not the place to ask my question.

    Recently i install funtoo to my laptop amd64 -A6 dual boot with win10, i follow the installation guide to emerge kernel+xfce4+refind uefi, everything alright and boot without problem. Then i tried to use gnome and follow the guide using epro mix-ins gnome and emerge @world,

    process completed and start gnome, but it show me that i miss something not install and falllback.

    So i tried emerge -va gnome , it take more than 170 packages to be installed which included 'apache'. then i was confused.

    My question is that

    apache is / not required for installing gnome? i don't need it becasue i already emerge nginx+php+mariadb

    # epro mix-ins +gnome | emerge @world  . this mix-ins command will do everything for installing gnome, or just parrt of it. And i need to emerge gnome just like old school method ?

    this is confusing me and anyone can help please.
