Please post your /etc/fstab so we can take a look. Can you remount it rw manually?

yeah i can mount it r/w manually if u meant something such as :

mount /dev/hda8 /mnt/gentoo

as i assume it's r/w because i can copy and paste files while i'm in console of installation...

i will be back soon with fstab , going to type it up real quick brb

#glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for
#POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink).
