Hi,

I'm trying to install Gentoo 2005.1 universal on a Toshiba M40-244 laptop.
Unfortunatly, I can't see my hard drive (/dev/hda) after booting with the CD.

During the boot, I've got the folowing message :
Sep 26 13:18:47 livecd ide0: I/O ressource 0x1F0-0x1F7 not free.
Sep 26 13:18:47 livecd ide0: ports already in use, skipping probe

Then, according from /proc/ioports :
...
00f0-00ff : fpu
0170-0177 : ide1
01f0-01f7 : libata     <- Arg :/
0376-0376 : ide1


Does anyone have an idea to avoid the error ?


When I boot from other livecd (like System Rescue CD), there is no problem.

My hard drive has been partioned :
hda1 : ntfs    primary   bootable
hda2 : fat32   primary
hda5 : ext3    logical              (/boot)
hda6 : ext3    logical              (/home)
hda7 : ext3    logical              (/)
hda8 : swap    logical

And I can't have any Internet connection during the install.

Thanks !

Hi,
Not of much help but can read about possible boot flags and try some
of them, which have something common with harddisks (is your disk a
IDE/SATA?). Same for your netcard. Check install docs carefully.
Maybe your have another device on the disks' standard IRQ/address,
check also BIOS settings. Google for your laptop+model and gentoo.
