I'm trying to install gentoo on x86 using version 1.4 rc4, and have
run into a minor but increibly irritating problem. After boot when I'm
dumped to the command prompt, the progress bar which ticked off and
advanced while gentoo was detecting my devices keeps on going, writing
itself to the screen while I try and type commands. This makes it really
hard to type commands, but not impossible. The shell seems to ignore the
characters that make up the progress bar, but it's a triffle hard for me
to :). I do get a segfault while it's detecting my devices, but that
doesn't seem to have stopped the ethernet from comming up (I can ping
yahoo for instance). I've tried the 800 frame buffer and no frame buffer
and both do the same thing. Any suggestions on stopping this. Thanks :)
