I have an IBM thinkpad x31. I ripped the liveDVD 10.0 image on a USB stick using dd, then booted with it by selecting gentoo-nofb and the boot hangs on the message "Scanning for wd7000...". Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.boot liveDVD (the USB variant of it) 2. 3. Actual Results: boot hangs Expected Results: boot doesn't hang
if you don't need that module just boot with 'gentoo noload=wd7000' and report back. also attach 'lspci' output.
Also encountered this problem on my Compaq Evo N620c - looks like the same problem as #252635 - wd7000 does not cause the bug, its pata_qdi - noload=pata_qdi solved the problem here
