Yes, I have compiled with shm tmpfs support. The filesystem is mounted without troubles, but since glibc is compiled without _POSIX_MAPPED_FILES defined it uses empty implementations of the shm functions like shm_open. So basicly my system has support for shm tmpfs but since glibc is compiled ...

Well the "problems" you are reffering to here is caused by portage, when it still tries to install nvidia drivers from portage over the "manual" install. This is easily conquered by masking and putting the package in package.provided. In my case when I tried using the nvidia-driver from portage it ...

Try making the isoimage yourself, by using the commandline tool mkisofs. And throw on some verbose options to see what fails. k3b's error messages obviously suck as bad as Windows'.
