The install went ok, after making the initial ramdisk larger (64k instead of 16), and gave no errors, but after the copying of the files and doing the first reboot. My system hung. I wasn't able to do anything (even the power button didn't work). The last message on my console was the following: HP SDC: Spunking the self test register to force PUP on next firmware reset. HP SDC MLC: Registering the System Domain Controller's HIL MLC. Which is strange because there is no HIL stuff in this machine (this has something to do with the keyboard if I'm correct, but the b132l uses ps/2 interfaces for mouse and keyboard). Another strange thing was that the kernel that was chosen during install was a smp kernel? (2.6.8...smp something, I didn't pay real attention at that time) When I posted a message concerning this issue on a belgian linux newsgroup, there was someone who said he had experienced the same thing, and resolved this by booting from a gentoo cd and installing the latest kernel. Probably I'll attempt the same thing later on but I wanted to ask if there are other options or if I made some mistake?
