hi,

i'm new to gentoo and i've been trying to install 1.2 on an aging powermac 6500/250 (64mb of ram, 4gb of disk space dedicated to gentoo), bootX is installed and kicking in at the right moment, but during the initial loading screen (hardware detection), everything comes to a dead stop (no disk or cd activity, no error message, nothing).

the machine is a stock 6500, it has no G3 upgrade card, nor any PCI video card or SCSI card installed; the one thing i haven't been able to check while going over the documentation is whether my apple commslot 2 ethernet card is supported or not.

any insight is appreciated! takk

I figured I should post the info I get on my screen when it comes to a dead stop:
