Hi,

I'm trying to install a fresh gentoo on my new laptop, but I have an annoying problem. Three times a second a line is written to the terminal, making it very difficult to read/write commands and getting the installation done:
Code:
hub 1-1:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 2

Is there a way to disable this usb debug message or make syslog-ng catch it?

I also thought about using ssh, but my network adaprots (wired: 88e8059, wireloss: ar9285) don't seem to be supported by the latest installation cd's kernel (2.6.31).

Any suggestions would be great. Thanks!

boot cd, at boot prompt
Code:
gentoo nousb
Assuming you can do without usb

Else use the better install cd, System Rescue CD , booted to a network connection, a GUI, and firefox open to the gentoo handbook next to the terminal window.

If you can't do a wired network, you will be best served by booting a very current livecd from another distro, ubuntu or knoppix recommended, and using that as the install platform instead of the minimal cd.
