Just installed gentoo stage3 on an IBM Netfinity 4000R and I'm getting the following kernel panic when I try to boot. This is my first attempt at installing gentoo. What have I done wrong?

Nothing really. I had the same problem (install from stage 1) I was fortunate as I didn't need my scsi card to boot with (cdrom and scanner are scsi) I removed my scsi card compiled the kernel with aic7xxx built in and deselected all other scsi cards in menuconfig. I shut it down, replaced the scsi card and booted into my new system. It seems that hotplugging is erroniously detectings cards you don't have ie: aic7xxx_old, AHA-294x and so on. I had quite a few posts replying saying that my kernel was the culprit but that was of no help. Is your scsi card builtin or an addon?
