Is this still an issue? what version livecd were you using? try using a 2004.0 or 2004.1 livecd Requester can REOPEN if he wishes, but it appears that he has gone MIA. I have experienced this same issue; perhaps I can provide the needed information. I attempted to boot the Universal LiveCD version 2004.2. The kernel boots, but the system locks hard at the message "Scanning for uhci ...". Numlock/Capslock do not respond, the only recovery option is a hard reset. I attempted to pass the nousb option, but the results where the same. I disabled USB in my BIOS, and the system proceeded past the "Scanning for uhci ..." message. It made it further, but locked hard again whlie attempting to enable PCI hotplugging. I was finally able to complete the boot process by disabling USB in the BIOS and passing the nohotplug option. I have a Shuttle AB60R motherboard with a P4 Hyper-Thread enabled processor. The Shuttle motherboard is based off of the Intel 865PE and ICH5 chipsets. Sorry it took so long, this bug kinda got lost in my mailbox. Anyway, I am going to REOPEN this one and see what we can come up with. Eric, which kernel did you try to boot with? smp? nousb nohotplug is fixed now... so try that... I'm going to resolve this one since we're already working on 2004.3 and it should be released around the middle of November... Moving these so we can remove the "Install CD" component from "Gentoo Linux". I apologize to everyone for this spam, but according to the bugzilla developers, this is the only reasonable way to do this. |
