Hello

I had this problem on a Evesham laptop after I built the kernel.

The way I found to fix it was to do a Stage 2 install with 
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64" in /etc/make.conf.  Once I had the machine booting, 
I commented this line out.  I think there is a problem with glibc that 
casues this, but as you are doing a Stage 3 I'm not sure if that is the 
reason - I suppose it depends on how the Stage 3 was built.

I know that placing ~amd64 in your make.conf is not considered the best 
thing to do, but it worked for me.

Hope this helps!

&gt;
&gt;I built stage3 gentoo for amd64 on my laptop (emachines M6805)
&gt;all went well expect for the modules-update.
&gt;
&gt;when I ran modules-update I get: &quot;Warning: could not generate
&gt;/etc/modprobe.conf!&quot;
&gt;
&gt;So I continued on, when I was done and rebooted
&gt;into gentoo it stops at &quot;calculating module dependencies&quot;
&gt;I am guessing because of the /etc/modprove.conf problem?
&gt;
&gt;also on the kernel line I had noacpi and noapm
&gt;
&gt;thanks
&gt;scott
