[gentoo-user] Installation error: changed while moved

[Pietro Leone]

Hallo, I used without any problem Gentoo for several months, two weeks 
ago Win2k deleted my main partition, I could not recover anything 
(damn), so I decided to re-install Gentoo. From the first installation I 
added a RAID pci board and an U2SCSI HDD, nothing else, but now, simply 
I cannot install Gentoo, I tried to remove the RAID board, but was 
useless. The scripts/bootstrap.sh script work fine, but when I try to 
emerge the system I receive an error, some file �changed while copied�, 
I don't understand why the first installation worked fine and now I get 
problems.

I tried not to use the scsi hdd (the first installation was on an ide 
hdd), I tried to change the boot-kernel (both gentoo and smp, I have two 
CPUs), the filesystem and so on, but didnt work.

The package that give me errors is flex-2.5.4a, I know that flex2.5.4 is 
very old, so I tried to rename it as 2.5.04 in order to help the system 
to understand that 2.5.31 is newer, but gentoo told me that a dependecy 
was masked. I tried using ebuild in order to force the compilation of 
flex2.5.31, but portage told me the same as above, that the requested 
version of flex (the 2.5.4) was masked, so the installation stopped.

Another thing, I use a 56k modem, so I used the same two cd set of the 
first time I used Gento, I downloaded nothing, so I don't understand 
what is going wrong.

Someone can help me, I search for info on Internet, but I found nothing.

Thanks, Pietro.
PS: help me, I want my Gentoo, now I'm using RedHat9 :-(
PPS: excuse me for my english, I wrote the mail in hurry.
