While I was installing from minimal 2007.0 my ppp would not emerge got a fail error from a dependancy. Just want to know can I boot up off the CD and reemerge the file later on? Everything else ecxept the splash screen seems to be working fine exept my video driver my resolution is crappy.

Yes, you can boot up the CD and start where you left off on the installation. You will need to do the following:
| Code: |
mount -t FSTYPE /dev/ROOT /mnt/gentoo
mount -t FSTYPE /dev/BOOT /mnt/gentoo/boot
swapon /dev/SWAP
mount -t proc /proc /mnt/gentoo/proc
mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
env-update && source /etc/profile
export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"
|
Replacing FSTYPE with the actual filesystem type, and ROOT, BOOT, and SWAP with their respective partitions.
