I'm trying to run the Gentoo GUI installer on a desktop of mine from
the 2006.0 LiveCD. It freezes as soon as I click "Forward" to go to
the "Partitioning" section. How can I figure out what's going on? Is
there a test I can run on the hard drive to see if there's a hardware
problem causing this? Windows 98 is installed on it right now.

The installer seems "a little" unstable. Some users call it
not-working-crap, others really have succeeded in installing a system.
Try the normal installation. There is a really nice installation-manual
available on gentoo.org.
