11 This sounds to me like you did not unpack the stage tarball, or it was
12 only partially unpacked.
13
14 The `chroot' command will change the root directory to `/mnt/gentoo',
15 then try to execute /bin/bash from within that new environment. So the
16 file you need to make sure is in place from outside the chroot is
17 /mnt/gentoo/bin/bash. Try unpacking the stage tarball again (step 5 b
18 in the handbook) and see if it helps.
