Hi again,
Decided to go for a full Stage-1 type installation of Gentoo.
Unfortunately, the programme freezes:
GENTOO INSTALLATION
Thursday 28, August 2003
Start by booting your Live CD of choice. You should see a fancy boot screen with the Gentoo Linux logo on it. At this screen, you can hit Enter to begin the boot process, or boot the LiveCD with custom boot options by specifying a kernel followed by boot options and then hitting Enter.

Boot: gentoo, acpi, memtest, dokeymap, dopcmcia, noapm, nodhcp
Could not find kernel image: gentoo,
Boot: gentoo acpi memtest dokeymap dopcmcia noapm nodhcp
Keymap selection: 13 (Spanish)

cdimage root # net-setup eth0
Enter IP Address 172.16.0.6
Enter Broadcast Address 172.16.255.255
Enter Mask 255.255.0.0
Enter Gateway IP 172.16.0.1
Enter DNS 80.58.0.33
After the last step, system simply "stops", and nothing else happens:
Back to boot procedure:
boot: [ENTER]
...
cdimage root # net-setup eth0
Use DHCP to auto-detect my network settings
System stops again
I ran lsmod, and,
my 3c59x module is listed (unused)
So why should my network not start?
What is going on?
Cheers
