[gentoo-user] Machine freezes during gcc compile
I just got myself a new laptop and wanted to install Gentoo on it. After getting a working base system installed, I tried to install Xorg-x11, but the machine froze while trying to compile gcc. Keep in mind, there were no error messages, logs or anything of that nature. Just a straight up lack of any sort of control over the system. Now, just a little while ago I decided I'd try a different approach. I thought perhaps the problem lies in how I compiled the kernel. I tried to emerge gcc in the livecd environment with my gentoo install chrooted and sure enough, same deal. Does anyone know what could cause this? Or perhaps, what I should look for to solve this problem? Thanks. -- -·=»Ðŧħ«=·-

I don't see how this would force a fsck. Well so much for the man page on fstab... ount to return on my 2+TiB filesystem.) Also, resiserfsck is different than other fscks. It has two fix modes, neither of which is automatic and one of which is quite dangerous; the one you should use is based on the output of the check mode. Well OK, I got your instructions. However, xdm is not turned on so the system boots straight to a command line prompt. Previously I suspected the xorg.conf file for startup during xdm launch--latchup. After disabling X/kde/xdm, the system still has problems. Last night it was just sitting in a quiescent state and it just latched up. Not good for a brand new laptop. Today I booted it up and set the date on the command line. Then I issued 'hwclock --systohc' and the system latched up tight, again. Power cycle and the minimal CD has the system running a memtest86 for a while, to ensure it's not the ram. If the ram proves up OK, then I'm going to follow your previous instructions on repairing the reiserfs partitions. What else could it be? This was a vista only laptop, so if all else fails, I'll just blame Microsoft.. I ran fdisk but, it may need an old fashion dos format? Suggestions on robust low_level formatting is I have to re-install this machine? I've got over a dozen systems with reiserfs on the /boot partition and not a single problem in almost 4 years of running gentoo and reiser on the boot partition. Losing 32M of space is a non issue for me. Reiser gets a lot of bad press, but, I like it very much and cannot wait until reiser4 is a bit more of a commodity.

Re: [gentoo-user] Machine freezes during gcc compile
If it's brand-new, have you ever installed Linux on this particular processor/motherboard combination? I had a problem with freezeups with my TurionX2 laptop until I used -noapic on the kernel line. Nothing much to do with load, except that more work = more chance of encountering the problem. I also had heat-related issues until I got the thermal sensors coupled with the speed governor. But then the machine would just turn off abruptly. I was able to get it to run long enough to recompile by putting a pencil up under the corner where the vents are, for more clearance and airflow. More details about the system might help you get better answers. On 7/30/07, Dan Cowsill [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I just got myself a new laptop and wanted to install Gentoo on it.

Yes, I've done some reading and indeed it probably is overheating. I'll probably prop it up on some jewel cases and blow a fan at it until I can get a working system.
