Gentoo Linux version 2.6.11-gentoo-r3 hangs on boot. Only 1 try from 10 is successful. Hardware: Laptop Mitac 7020. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert CD with install-x86-universal-2005.0.iso image to CD-ROM. 2. Reboot notebook. 3. After any choice in prompt and hit enter - kernel hangs without any diags. Actual Results: After prompt, I see output (here is gentoo-nofb version): Loading gentoo......... Loading gentoo.igz....... Ready Uncompressing Linux... [Oops! hangs!] It dosn't depend on kernel type (with/without fb) or options (even all no- options, like "nofirmware nodetect nohotplug noapic ..."). But, sometimes - it loads. Expected Results: Normal loaging without any hang. Like the same kernel from Slackware do (see additional information for dmesg comparision). My be I don't know the module that I should prevent to be loaded but can't even figure out what kind of... From one of successful boot, I save dmesg output: ---------start--------------- Linux version 2.6.11-gentoo-r3 (root@nemo) (gcc version 3.3.5 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.5-r1, ssp-3.3.2-3, pie-8.7.7.1)) #1 SMP Fri Mar 18 17:02:37 UTC 2005 BIOS-provided physical RAM map: BIOS-e820: 0000000000000000 - 000000000009fc00 (usable) BIOS-e820: 000000000009fc00 - 00000000000a0000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 00000000000f0000 - 0000000000100000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 0000000013ff0000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 0000000013ff0000 - 0000000013ffffc0 (ACPI data) BIOS-e820: 0000000013ffffc0 - 0000000014000000 (ACPI NVS) BIOS-e820: 00000000fffc0000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved) 0MB HIGHMEM available. 319MB LOWMEM available.

Memtest86+ v1.51 (from install-x86-universal-2005.0.iso prompt): 1 pass without any errors.
Can you check the CD at http://gentoo.osuosl.org/experimental/x86/livecd/x86/install-minimal- x86-2005.1_pre1.iso and let us know if it works?
Yes, I'll do, but it may take a while because of unlimited internet connection is absence, sorry. May be at the week-end (30-31 July).
We will have the next release finalized by then and won't be able to make any changes. I guess we'll just be hoping that it works.
This should be resolved with 2005.1, but feel free to REOPEN this if the problem still exists...
