Gentoo 2007.0 installer: user's fault.

It's been my 4th year with Gentoo.
I downloaded 2007.0 live cd today and launched the installer for one of my systems.
After 15 mins of action I get "Your install has failed."
Wait a second....
MY INSTALL HAS FAILED??
How possibly Gentoo installer coders could insult Gentoo users more?
Still in love with Gentoo.

or just stop trying to use the installer, in its 2007.0 release state its the cause of more problems than its worth, you would be doing yourself a favour to ditch it and just do a manual install following the handbook.

I think hes just upset with the wording --- 'YOUR install has failed', as opposed to say, 'THIS install has failed' or 'THE install has failed' or 'FAILURE ABORTING MISSION!'
