I am trying to install gentoo from the web by following the steps in

When I execute

after some time the process terminates with a message similar to
cd ../obj_s; -I../c++ -I../include

(I say similar because the output above is from executing make within
the relevant directory -var/tmp/portage/ncurses-5.4-r6/work/narrowc/c++)
Inspecting the Makefile shows that there is no value defind for CXX.
As g++ does not appear to exist within my chrooted environment I did
attempt to set this to gcc, but this failed with a notice the c++ was
not installed.
I believe I must have messed up something in creating my chroot
environment as g++ exists elsewhere. But I can't figure what that
might have been.
I have also tried executing the instructions for installing gcc 3.4 in
the hope that this would give me a c++ compiler, but this failed with
the same error as above.
Any ideas on how I should proceed? I am loathe to restart as a) I
don't yet see what I can do differently and b) I have a 2GB cap on my
bandwidth for December and have already used over 25% of this.
Thanks,
Well, I may have ran into this before. Type in df and see if your disk
is full. It is worth a try at least.

Thanks for the reply Dale. The output of df in my chroot environment is:
df: cannot read table of mounted filesystems: No such file or directory
I am not clear on what the cause of significance of this is. On the
actual system (i.e. not in chroot) the output is:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
tmpfs 252M 5.2M 247M 3% /
/newroot/dev/cdroms/cdrom0
59M 59M 0 100% /mnt/cdrom
/dev/loop/0 52M 52M 0 100% /mnt/livecd
tmpfs 252M 1.2M 251M 1% /lib/firmware
/dev/hda3 1.4G 596M 785M 44% /mnt/gentoo
/dev/hda1 130M 13K 123M 1% /mnt/gentoo/boot
I expect this would provide me with sufficient space?
I was incorrect in my previous email, executing g++ outside of the
chroot results in:
sh: line 1: /usr/bin/gcc-config: No such file or directory
gcc-config error: Could not get compiler binary path: No such file or
directory
But this may be a result of my attempt to emerge gcc 3.4.4?
