I just went through the install process for amd64 on my Acer 5050 laptop (turion) and ran into a few problems with the install, mostly with out of date packages (xterm-215 is no longer available).  It took 4 attempts to get to the install portion where I could reboot and resume the build after the emerge failed.

Is there some way to have the installer run emerge --sync before it starts building the system?
