[gentoo-dev] chroot in x86 install

[Rashidul Amin]

When I'm trying to do the code listing 17 according to the x86install documentation (the last stage before which I build the system), it's giving me an "invalid instruction" feedback. 
after doing tar -xvjpf /mnt/cdrom/stage?-*.tbz2
I did the following
# mount -o bind /proc /mnt/gentoo/proc
# cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/resolv.conf (according to code listin 16/17)
Everything was fine uptill this point.
After this though, when I typed in 
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
the feedback was
"invalid instruction"
Since I couldn't do it, I would assume it won't let me do env-update either. I tried it anyway and yes it couldn't find any such command. I'm stuck with my installation at that level. Please please help.
Thanks,

You get this when you're using the binaries compiled for the wrong
architechture. What type of computer you trying to install on and what
was the arch on the stageN tarball you used?
