He did. It states he tried to run env-update several times, so he got back out of chroot and moved make.conf, chrooted again and it works.. So, it sounds like make.conf was bad, but was trying to figure out what could be wrong in the default make.conf that would do that.. > It's not an error.

It's not an error. You need to do it before you chroot or you can't get to the real /etc. You are copying the resolv.conf used with the LiveCD boot to what will be your Gentoo install /etc. You don't run env-update until after you chroot. 1. copy resolv.conf 2. do whatever else 3. chroot 4
