Hi, Your English is perfectly fine for communicating this problem. Welcome to Gentoo-Users. From memory, and I think I missed this problem once, if you forget to cd /mnt/gentoo or forget to mount your hard drive at /mnt/gentoo, then essentially you are trying to write the tar to the CD. Of course this doesn't work. Go back and check the instructions just before that step. I suspect you forgot to cd /mnt/gentoo. As Robert said, it could also be that you jsut didn't have enough disk space. Cheers, Mark -- [email protected] mailing list
