Read error on block (tried, got) Won't boot?

[austinramsay]

Okay so I've just finished my gentoo install on a sun t2000 (16 cores, 16gb ram) and it all went well until I rebooted and tried to boot off it without the live cd. This is what I'm getting.

Code: Select all

{0} ok boot

And it goes on and on and on. Any ideas?
