Description steven 2004-01-28 02:32:45 UTC 
When I try to boot the gentoo livecd on a pentium 100MHz the first and the last message I get is "press a key to reboot".
The MD5 sum of the iso (x86-1.4-20030911-cd1.iso) is correct.  And the cd boots on other PC's.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.boot the livecd
Actual Results:  
"Press a key to reboot"
When pressing key it does what it says.

Expected Results:  
Seeing the gentoo bootsplash.

try passing nofb as a boot option and try the 2004.0 LiveCD
Comment 2 Bob Johnson (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-03-15 13:46:46 UTC 
This is probaly a bios setting, or a old cdrom with 
a compability problem.

The computer is trying to boot it, but cant find a os.
