Thanks Mark for your help.
Maybe it is a more hidden hardware problem. Anyway the cd was working with the same hardware with Suse Linux. It is an IDE disk UDMA66 quite modern (48x).
I have changed my complete computer for one exactly as I had before. I'm going to try again the whole installation process.
no, its really not hardware problem, I experience the same on several older machines (PIII 700 class or 4x PIII 800 machine).
It does not happen for gentoo 1.2, but for every newer. At the moment I don't remember
exactly but indeed on the console appears for the milisecond warning saying something
about dma. Kernel parametere like "noudma" does not help. The same behaviour I have
with movix ("mplayer distro") so I assume this has something to do with kernel. Resetting ide by online unplugging and plugging again
ide tape fixes the problem.....
