S far so good, I am up to copying over the portage tree. What i am wondering is did i miss a step or is the manual missing a step? When I came to: tar -xvjf /mnt/cdrom/snapshots/portage-20031011.tar.bz2 -C /mnt/gentoo/usr ; it gave me some error msg. I dont know if i did the right thing, but I : mkdir /mnt/gentoo/usr : and now it seems to be unzipping everything alright, but should i have like mounted it or something?

weel i got pas that part for now, i hope. but now a few mins later, i am upto where i have to open nano to edit the make.conf fiel, execpt i dont have one, and there isnt ever a /mnt/gentoo/etc folder. How have i gone so wrong?
