Did you copy over the distfiles? Try:

Code:

emerge dhcpcd

What exactly is happening when I type

Code:

chroot . /bin/bash --login

? I haven't copied anything over because I don't understand what is happining in this step or the two previous lines:

Code:

mount -o bind  /dev/ /mnt/gentoo/dev 
mount -t proc proc /mnt/gentoo/proc

Those are mounting some basic bits you require. Copy over /etc/resolv.conf, THEN chroot.

You should copy over /etc/resolv.conf to the chroot's /etc

YES! YES! YES! Thank you so much, no more misery! You guys rock! You're both hacker's in my book. You can mark this one as SOLVED. And yes, I realize you posted the solution on page 1, but hey, I'm just slow.

Any more troubles, read the Gentoo handbook

That guide's missing a few bits.

Thats a good idea, I was using this one because the gentoo distro with dmraid suggested it at the prompt. I need to look at the handbook too, kindof forgot about it
