Hi again,

In fact, just like Ricardo said, my congrats to a person who wants to
learn Linux starting by Gentoo :-)
But, back to the problem:

Then, I insist at the point: As root, try to mount it manually and
paste the output here:

# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

Certify that /mnt/cdrom exists. :-)
