4 I recently got a system with an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Processor 4200+ (dual
5 core). The problem I keep having with both of the Gentoo AMD 64 CDs
6 (Minimal and Full) is that: 1. Unless I disable the frame buffer, it
7 will sit there (forever, I think). 2. When I disable the frame buffer,
8 it will go okay up until a point, then it will freeze.

10 It will never allow me to get to the point where I can retrieve logs to
11 see where the problem is. It has been quite frustrating - I can get the
12 Minimal Install disc for x86 to boot, and can even try to set up my
13 system, but if I try to change to the AMD64 profile, it will not
14 function. I'd be grateful for any ideas on how to get this thing to work.
