Gentoo begins booting and hangs while attempting to detect usb stuff (uhci specifically).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot
2. load default kernel


Actual Results:  
The install hangs.

Expected Results:  
No real resolution is nessecary since this is a very small bug related to strange compaq hardware.

Running gentoo with the options nousb and nohotplug allows you to install.
