I'm trying to install Gentoo 2005.1 universal on a Toshiba M40-244 laptop. Unfortunatly, I can't see my hard drive (/dev/hda) after booting with the CD. During the boot, I've got the folowing message : Sep 26 13:18:47 livecd ide0: I/O ressource 0x1F0-0x1F7 not free. Sep 26 13:18:47 livecd ide0: ports already in use, skipping probe Then, according from /proc/ioports : ... 00f0-00ff : fpu 0170-0177 : ide1 01f0-01f7 : libata <- Arg :/ 0376-0376 : ide1 ...

You do know that all of the sata stuff shows up as SCSI devices on our release media, right? Try looking for /dev/sda and REOPEN this if that didn't resolve this for you.
