[gentoo-dev] installation problem

[gentoo-dev] installation problem

[Steve Barr]

i am trying to install gentoo on my computer, i used   
build-ix86-1.0_rc6-r15.iso  and everything goes well in the install, i have 
networking and everything until i execute these commands

# cd /mnt/gentoo
 # tar -xvjpf /mnt/cdrom/build-*.tbz2
 # mount -o bind /proc /mnt/gentoo/proc
 # cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/resolv.conf
 # chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
 # env-update
 Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache...
 # source /etc/profile
 

at this point, my networking does not work, this basically stops the install 
process as the next step is 

#emerge rsync

am i missing something? or is this just bad luck

please help

Maybe you have a proxy you need to export?

"export http_proxy="http://my.proxy.com:8080"

this could be the problem?

Bye!

Can you ping some known host after you've set up networking, and before
you chroot?

Don't just ping an IP, ping eg. kallisti.dk :)

What is 'ifconfig' saying?
What does /etc/resolv.conf contain, and does it look right?

If these things work/look OK, do the chroot and try it all again.

Hope this helps

What in detail is not working?
The problem with such network problems is, that you dont't have any network 
commands after you changed the root (chroot). So you have to check what is 
not working with your network setup before you chroot.

BTW i think this is more a user question.

Secondly, we cannot help you if you don't tell use what the error is. If
you can, please post the exact error mesage and any other information you
can give: such as the output of `emerge info`. Remember: when asking about
something that's broken or needs fixing, it's better to give too much

Try putting in "root" then pressing return for the password.

CDIMAGE means CD Image, like cd iso, not image as in picture image.
