I think I tracked down the problem... 
It seems that my drive has intermittend problems reading DVD's, which
made me think it always failed on gentoo, and always worked on Mandrake.
A couple of minutes ago, I managed to get one disc working in Gentoo, so
I may need a new drive :-(

Thanks for your help!
