Hit F2 at the boot prompt and see if some of the options such as noacpi might help. I don't use a laptop but the comments indicate some options are for laptops.

Hi

I am trying to install Genttoo (I am a gentoo virgin :-) on my laptop. WHen the livecd boots, I get the logo, but when the kernel starts loading, it gets just reboots the machine and dumps me back to the splash screen :-( Can anyone suggest a cure for my Gentoo bloos?

Thanks
