gentoo-headers? Did you mean linux-headers?

Nope, I have the same problem too. Trying for a stage1 install (done plenty of times before) but stops when it tries to download gentoo-headers-2.6.11-2 during the bootstrap script.
I'm going to mess around with the ebuilds slightly and make it grab the linux/kernel headers instead, and will post my findings if I have luck.
AUS,

I've had too many problems in the past with stage 1 builds, now I only go from stage 2.
I rarely go from stage 3 as the chances are that as soon as you do a
you will download most of the packages again because of the updates - which would of needed for stage 2 anyway....  |

I've always been a glutton for punishment .
Strangely enough, whilst playing around I downloaded a portage snapshot from a few days ago, didn't bother emerge-syncing, and it's all going smoothly. hmm. I'm gonna check bugs section out and see if anything's been mentioned there. I just checked a few distfile mirrors and the file still wasn't there, so not too sure what's happening in that respect. |

Hm, that was probably a typo in the underlying ebuild, because it has been linux-libc-headers since it first came out this way (kernel sources, glibc kernel sources splitting). More insight on this splitting from www.linuxfromscratch.org:
| Quote: | | For years it has been common practice to use raw kernel headers (straight from a kernel tarball) in /usr/include, but over the last few years, the kernel developers have taken a strong stance that this should not be done. This gave birth to the Linux-Libc-Headers Project, which was designed to maintain an Application Programming Interface (API) stable version of the Linux headers. |

And it looks like they updated it now to gentoo-headers-2.6.11-3, or at least that's what the ftp server (uk mirrors service) shows. 
Now back to going for a stage one (since I found my hardware was failing, l'sigh). |
