this sounds like a hardware issue - I would guess that you either have |
| 10 |
faulty ram (or something similar); or your cpu is getting too hot! |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
It is often the case that these issues don't surface until you do |
| 13 |
something intensive like compile gentoo! |

I've never used the graphical install from 2006.0, so I don't know how |
| 18 |
you can continue from there, but have a look at section 6 of the gentoo |
| 19 |
handbook (not the 2006.0 version): |
| 20 |

6. Installing the Gentoo Base System |
| 23 |
6.a. Chrooting |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
follow the instructions up to and including the chroot command (no need |
| 26 |
to do the mirrorselect or dns info commands) |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Once you've chrooted to your new install, just type 'emerge --resume' |
| 29 |
and it should continue from the last package that was installed. |

Hope this works for you, |
