Recently I have been using the latest Live CD to rescue my crashed

point. Then when I reboot my new gentoo setup the boot stops at some
point with the same errror "segmentation violation".
The problem is on your Gentoo partition, not the CD. Once you chroot, you
are effectively running your initial installation again (apart from
kernel, /dev etc). You need to narrow down what actions result in a
segfault, then you can get an idea of what needs fixing.
Some more information, like what is "some point" and what are you doing
when "almost done" would go a long way to helping others to help you.
Thank you Neil,
I'm kind of lost, since the segmentation viololation is quirky, showing
up at different steps in the rescue process. I also during using the
i683 stage 3 tarball, ,that I ended up missing many import files, like
emerge, etc. I am kind of lost, because I haven't discerned a pattern
to the appearance of the fault. Perhaps I will catalogue the points of
failure and post them to the list, so someone with more expertise can
see pattern in the faults that I do not have the experience of seeing.
Sincerely,
Rob
