I am having the same troubles with my stage3-athlonxp install.

Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

I was having this problem as well. For me, it was because my kernel was using vesafb-tng instead of vesafb. Recompiling with vesafb or no framebuffer support should fix it for you. If you used genkernel, I'm not sure how this applies to you.

Please see Kernel doesn't boot, stops with "vesafb: scrolling: redraw".

Moved from Installing Gentoo to Duplicate Threads.
