I did shutdown the computer during the install. I have already emerged the system. Know I start up from cd but I dont know what to do next.
I know I have to chroot again but when I type: chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash I get the error that /bin/bash is not a file or directory Hwo knows which steps I have to take know?

Thanks in advance,
David

You have to start at the point where you mount the new partitions on the gentoo structure first:

Code:
cd /mnt
mount /dev/blah gentoo
cd gentoo
mount /dev/bleh boot
mount -t proc none proc

and then - and only then:
Code:
chroot . /bin/bash


That's my own shortened mount/chroot sequence by the way - it's the absolute minimum to type ;-)
