and then use linux installed on harddisk so the boot only that on sysrescuecd
and sda3 is the harddisk.
or just cd startup and mount sda3 to the cdrom.

then here use the sysrescudecd as it was a install cdrom for Gentoo and do what
there stands in the handbook for it.

the grub is the old grub:0 here.

Ok this should be the Gentoo linux from the rescuecd.

I have now a working 1.5tb harddisk with kernel 3.17.7 on it and mostly all
functions on it with config to run as a router setup. :-)
It shall just only could be moved on to router pc and exchange for the 1tb
there now is on it and have some little of config files updated to match for
router cards.

  Take care,
