I completed all steps listed there at least in 2 rounds.  I found;
# ls -l /usr/src/linux
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root   root    12 Oct 13 11:04 /usr/src/linux ->
linux-2.6.17-gentoo-r7

there.  But now it disppears.  I don't know why?.  Even I can't find
the directory "src" after chroot.  Another directory I failed to find
was "modules".  I ran;

# find / -name src -type d
and
# find / -name modules -type d
Both no printout

and could not find it.  Beside the command "env-update", emerge, etc.
were not found on "bash".

I think I have to run another round again wiping out the complete HD.


Another thing, what did you mean "...Use whatever name you feel is
appropriate for your kernel choice and remember it as you will need it
later on when you configure your bootloader. Remember to replace
kernel-2.6.17-gentoo-r5 with the name and version of your kernel." 

I used "kernel-2.6.17-gentoo-r7" previously.

Tks.
