Ok, this one is strange.. i`ve got to the moment in install where i had to copy etc/resolv.conf AND i cannot do it. It say, that No space left on device. Its impossieble! I have more space than it`s in handbook (250G) and what? Funniest thing- its one time saying there is no such file, some times no space, sometimes ask f it had to overwrite oO

/mnt/gentoo

on your df , you will need to mount your harddrive to cp resolv.conf to it

something like
Code:
mount /dev/hdaX /mnt/gentoo


X being your root partition assuming you have been following the howto as written and not adlibbing

then df should show your /mnt/gentoo with alot of free space, then you can

cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/resolv.conf

no problem in theory.

You need to find your harddisk, /dev/hda seems to be your cdrom. Look at /proc/partitions or the output of fdisk -l
