GLI: June 05 2007 00:53:15 - IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/mnt/gentoo/var/tmp/spawn.sh'

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot from 2007 LiveDVD
2. After X Server has loaded, execute "installer" from terminal.
3. Configure "installer" to pull portage-snapshot from:

   http://gentoo.osuosl.org/snapshots/portage-20070603.tar.bz2

4. Once "installer" nearly-completes extracting contents from tarball, it crashes.

Actual Results:

Expected Results:  
I expected the 2007 LiveDVD's "installer" to install Gent00.

You chose a portage snapshot tarball for the stage tarball.
