Hi List, |
| 2 |
I just bought an ACER Laptop 5630. Unfortunately |
| 3 |
this is the only Laptop where I encountered the |
| 4 |
following problem: |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
When I try to install Linux from the Gentoo 2006.1 |
| 7 |
live CD the boot process stops at |
| 8 |
"Setting Up Hardware Clock to UTC". After that it |
| 9 |
says "one or more boot scripts didn't start |
| 10 |
properly". |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
give root password or press CTRL-D for maintainance: |
| 13 |
I tried all the combinations "acpi=off , apic=off" |
| 14 |
but noone of them seemed to work. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
With SuSE 10.1 I get a time-out while trying to set |
| 17 |
hardware clock and then it goes on properly. while |
| 18 |
other Linux distros either hang or stop at the |
| 19 |
same point. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Moreover FreeBSD 6.2 doesn't boot at all, it stops |
| 22 |
after loading the kernel and the modules. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Is this a motherboard related problem a BIOS problem? |
| 25 |
Has any one of you had similar problems in the past? |
| 26 |
What can I do? |

Best, |
