ill look into this, up until now, weve been lucky to boot this laptop. I have the same problem with my IBM ThinkPad iSeries 1200 (Model 1161-257). Even if killing the procesms, generated by the command "hwsetup -p", stops the annoying spinner, the real problem comes latter when executing "grub" command in the final steps of x86 Installation Guide. The same error hangs the probing for drivers of grub and just don't let the installation finish. After searching the Gentoo Foruns, I just discovered this thread (http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=52800&highlight=hwsetup) that didn't help as much, since I can't disable or enable my nonexistent floppy disk deriver, with the "very simple" BIOS provided by IBM for this ThinkPad model. does 1.4 release still have this problem? |
