Description Alan Hourihane 2007-07-16 08:16:08 UTC 
When booting 2007.0 on my UP1500 it hangs after saying....

Detected 1  EV68AL CPU(s) in a UP1500 796 MHz system

I have to reboot and specify "nodetect" for it to be able to get to a commandprompt.

Reproducible: Always

Can you try a 2008.0 Beta 1 CD and see if it works?
Comment 2 Matt Turner gentoo-dev 2008-12-12 07:01:55 UTC 
I was unable to reproduce with 2008.0. I didn't try 2007.0, but if 2008.0 works, then there's no reason to use 2007.0.

Please mark as fixed.

FYI, it _does_ hang with 2007.0.
