1 I can't reproduce this on vmware (and neither can Chris). after
2 bootstrap I just hit enter and the console comes back. Can someone
3 having this problem give as many hardware details as possible,
4 especially video cards, etc. Also, if it's not to much trouble could you
5 try it with a 2.6 normal gentoo livecd and see if it happens. Thanks
