This is strange,.. I can not install.. there is a login needed to gett anywhere..

Its the same with both the universal and the minimal installCD..

.. if this dont work i´ll go to BSD.. !=O

To ADD,.. Its an AlphaStation 255.

I also have the problem to gett a picture from the grafikscard.. I now use a terminal in WinXP for it.

Did you already install ? And there is a login: prompt ?

Login as `root' using the password you supplied during installation ... if you skipped this step, chroot from the livecd and run `passwd'.

Odd. Well use a KNOPPIX cd. It's much better anyway, and all you need to install Gentoo is in the Stage3 tarball which you can just wget.
