Can't help you but at least you are not alone. Mine gets to 19 of 96 then starts again. I've tried 3 clean installs with both the LiveCd and min install discs with the same result. Hope we find a fix soon as my Gentoo machine has now been down for 4 days and I hate using Windows.

Is it stopping with an error and you do "emerge -e system" again? Or, is it just restarting halfway through on it's own?

If you are typing "emerge -e system" again, it will start from the beginning. Try doing "emerge --resume" instead. The other thing to consider is, why is it stopping? What error is it? If it's stopping due to an error, post the previous 30-40 lines above where it stops at so we can help fix the problem.

sys-apps/portage 2.0.54-r2 is out and has been marked stable!
Would this version fix the looping problem?
Has anyone tried yet?
Thanks!
