RE: Problem with the initialization of gentoo on ibook 12"

Try turning off both of these driverss:

Device Drivers -> Character Devices -> Serial Drivers  < > 8250/16550 and
compatible serial support Device Drivers -> Input Device Support -> Hardware
I/O ports  < > i8042 PC Keyboard Controller

Hope this helps.

ibook 12"


I have just installed gentoo on my ibook 12". It has dual boot with
yaboot. Sometimes it works fine but sometimes, without any reason it
 starts as follows and stops:

 At this point it stops and nothing happens... then I need to turn the
machine off and then turn it on again. Today, in particular, I needed to
do this around 10 times before it worked ...

It doesn't seem to be hardware problem because macosx always works fine.
Maybe there is a problem with my yaboot.conf:

boot=/dev/hda2
device=/pci@f4000000/ata-6@d/disk@0:
partition=5
root=/dev/hda5
timeout=30
install=/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot
magicboot=/usr/lib/yaboot/ofboot

image=/boot/kernel-2.6.10
        label=Linux
        read-only

macosx=/dev/hda3

My current partition table is like that:

/dev/hda1	Apple_partittion_map
/dev/hda2	Apple_Bootstrap
/dev/hda3	Apple_HFS
/dev/hda4	swap
/dev/hda5	linux partition


 	Does anyone know what is the problem?
