Greetings, I have an older Abit KT7 dev box that currently has Ubuntu 8.04 on it (Debian and FreeBSD before that). I was interested in putting a LFS installation on it from the current livecd (2160). Unfortunately, it hangs at boot with the message, "Bringing up loopback device." I did a precursory check on the FAQ and LFS pages, but came up with no simliar problems during boot. I also tried the 2145 disc to no avail. I've also already tried the standard error correction boot command: *linux* noapic nolapic pci=*noacpi*nomsi clock=pit, resulting in the same message. Though I've been a user of BSD and Linux for a couple of years now, I'm not too sure on the internal workings of either. Kind of why I'm going with this experiment in LFS. Since I have Ubuntu on it, I can get whatever might be helpful from dmesg, hwinfo, etc. Where could I start researching the issue or work my way around it.
Thanks in advance
