you may need to try latest iso at www.gentoo.org/~livewire you can do a noapm, nohotplug, start acpi if needed.. also has 2 kernels.
need test
Please test with latest version and reopen the bug if the problem persists.
Moving these so we can remove the "Install CD" component from "Gentoo Linux". I apologize to everyone for this spam, but according to the bugzilla developers, this is the only reasonable way to do this.
