the livecd reference in this context suggests you want to be in a chroot for an install or maintenace but are not
assuming that to be the case: boot the cd, mount the gentoo partitions, enter the chroot, nominally: | Code: | mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/gentoo
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/gentoo/boot
cp -L /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/
mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc
mount --rbind /sys /mnt/gentoo/sys
mount --rbind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
source /etc/profile
export PS1="(chroot) $PS1" |
do your work, make a graceful exit | Code: | exit
cd
umount -l /mnt/gentoo/dev{/shm,/pts,}
umount -l /mnt/gentoo{/boot,/proc,}
reboot |

The thing is i already had chrooted. Well i got it working, i just changed /usr/portage/repo_name from 'livecd' to 'gentoo' and it works fine now. Why would this have been changed to livecd? |

Which livecd did you use for the install? What were the instructions you used to install the portage "gentoo" tree initially?
