Does the cd hang or a kernel you installed? If the latter see post 4 of this thread:

Booting with the option noacpi doesn't work too.
I have tried another way.
I have downloaded the experimental livecd 'gentoo-selinux-2004.0-i686-20040125.iso' and booted my notebook with this one. After this i transfered the required stage and portage file over ssh from my pc to my notebook.
No it works.

Thanks for your help
