1 Hi,
2
3 I'm trying to install gentoo on a Dell Dimension C521, which has an
4 AMD Sempron 3400+ CPU.
5
6 I downloaded and buned the AMD64 2006.1 minimal install disk, but when I try
7 to boot from the CD it hangs, the last message being:
8
9 io scheduler deadline registered (default)
10
11 I have tried booting with nosata and with doscsi but the boot process
12 always hangs. A 2006.1 x86 minimal CD boots perfectly.
13
14 Can anyone offer suggestions as to what may be wrong?
15
16 Thanks,
17
