Why this first configure with the bad ${PREFIX} option? |

Keep in mind, setting the PATH in the shell is only for your benefit |
| 45 |
and has no effect on the PATHs available to portage. Be sure to set |
| 46 |
this using the DEFAULT_PATH var in make.conf or your profile. |

Ok, if you are having to manually create ${PREFIX}/etc, the make |
| 54 |
install target of portage is failing. Can you run make install again |
| 55 |
and log it and/or watch very carefully what is getting installed and |
| 56 |
where? |

This directory should also have been created during make install. |
