on part 6d (Progressing from Stage2 to Stage3) of installing gentoo. I try to do
Code:
emerge system
but when it tries to download the second package (db-4.1.25.tar.gz), i get error 404. the server emerge is connecting to is www.sleepycat.com

Is there a way to change servers or what do I do now?

Did you do the mirrorselect step, if you did you should have multiple entries in /etc/make.conf that are in the section GENTOO_MIRRORS.

Ya might want to start there first.

You will need to "exit" the chroot and then redo the command. then chroot back in to finish the install.

thank you for your fast response, i just tried mirrorselect again, it still did not write anything to make.conf. the only output generated from mirrorselect is

Code:
netselect: unknown host ftp6.linux.cz
netselect: unknown host ftp.ipv6.uni-muenster.de
netselect: unknown host
netselect: unknown host vlaai.snt.ipv6.utwente.nl
netselect: unknown host vlaai.snt.ipv6.utwente.nl
netselect: unknown host vlaai.snt.ipv6.utwente.nl
