You will want the Live ISO image for a x86 install. The HPPA won't run on x86, but it will run on he PA8000 cpu arch, the same CPU as the HP Visualize C180 I have sitting here.

Re: [gentoo-user] install CD of Hewlett-Packard server
Oh,God! I can't start my machine with the livecd anymore even I have burned another livecd with "livecd-i686-installer-2006.1.iso". The error is still all the same:"coldpluging pci devices",which appears at 68%'s progress.

You may install Gentoo from any live CD. I installed mine from Knoppix, but it looks like any live CD will do. I also do not see how Windows 2003 or whatever being installed can prevent your system from booting a CD. Much more likely, it is a hardware or BIOS (not likely, but still a better guess than Windows). You may try to remove all PCI devices except the video card and try to boot the CD again. -- Andrei Gerasimenko -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

You have some kind of pci device that is not playing nicely with the LiveCD. Perhaps a kernel module is starting with the wrong parameters, or there is a bug, or whatever. Remove all pci devices except ones you need and try various sensible combinations in a sensible order to narrow down the device that is problematic. When the CD first boots, there is a splash screen where you can select which kernel to use and various options. If I remember correctly it's on the F2 key. Have a look there at stuff that can be disabled - acpi is a common culprit so try that first > Now my machine has a Windows2003,so is there any way that I can > install gentoo in Windows?

Yes, you can get an amulator and run virtual machine, even under Windows.

Thank you all guys! I can enter my gentoo with livecd with the parameter "gentoo noapic",now. The livecd of Gentoo is so powerful! Thank all of you! -- wcw -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
