Hi..

Does anyone know of any problems when trying to install gentoo on a dual machine?

I have a dual 733 with 512 meg registered ECC memory and 29160 scsi card. I can't seem to get past stage 1. It just hangs during compiling. I have run suse and mandrak on it without problems (including compiuling the kernel several times).

I have never had any prolems with compiling on that machine before..

Any ideas??

I'm on a dual P3 1.0 GHz box with 1024 MB of RAM and it runs Gentoo just fine.

...where does it hang?

I've got a dual Athlon MP 2000+ with 512MB of Ram and everything is fine here.

BTW. I use
Code:
alias make='make -j 2'

to let my PC compile using both.
