Which CD are you using? Can you attach the entire install.log?

[Comment 2 lynn e sorenson 2007-01-24 02:48:32 UTC]

Created attachment 107964 [details]
copies of fail log & install profile

(text/plain) and (application/XML).  Both together are invalid types entered manually.

That all I got.

You specified the portage snapshot on the CD as your stage tarball URI.
