I currently got a new Dual G4 867. I tried to install gentoo on it. But two major factors stoped me. 1) There is no ata100 support in the kernel on the CD. Not an issuse there is an ata66 bus on the Mac, but ata100 would be nice. 2) The network driver(s) that are in the kernel do not support the one that is in this machine. That is the biggest hinderence to getting gentoo installed. Thanks for the awesome meta-distro. Keep up the good work.
Just a heads up for this... there is no ppc kernel support for the ata100 bus at present, so not much can be done about this until there is kernel support. If you can provide the output of cat /proc/pci and dmesg in this bug it will be helpful to track down the missing NIC support problem. Also of note, the 1.2 ISO was released _before_ the dual 867mhz machines were release. In the PPC world it generally takes some time to get proper ahrdware support in the kernel, we are left palying waiting game more often than not.
