Hi,

I'm new to gentoo and I have some problem with gentoo instalation. During the 7.b. Installation the Sources -> Choosing a Kernel, after this command:

Code:
# USE="-doc symlink" emerge gentoo-sources


it ended with following error:

Code:
!!!ERROR: sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.18-r4 failure
Call stack
ebuild.sh, line 1546 Called dyn_unpack
ebuild.sh, line 709 Called die
!!! IO Failure -- Failed 'touch .unpacked' in /var/tmp/portage/gentoo-sources-2.6.18-r4


Please help me, I don't know what to do...

Thank you.[/code]

The /proc filesystem needs to be mounted in order for the "touch" command to work.

Maybe you forgot this step before entering the chroot environment.
Code:
# mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc
