Hi Jean-Marc,

> Do you follow the installation guide from gentoo.org?

There are several documents on Gentoo website.  I followed 2 documents:

Partitioning HD with LVM
Gentoo LVM2 installation
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/lvm2.xml

Installation
Gentoo Linux AMD64 Handbook
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-amd64.xml

I made some adjustment for my case.  I did not emerge LVM2.  

If fail again.  I'll run a final test according their HD config (w/o
slave), not running LVM.
