All /{s,}bin, /usr/{s,}bin contents dissappear after using cd to mounted partition. Possibility that it is just after mounting the partition. Note: KVM/Qemu Guest install attempt, x86_64. ISO file: install-amd64-minimal-20141030.iso Steps to reproduce: 1.- Boot iso. 2.- Partition disk 3.- Mount root in /mnt 4.- cd into /mnt 5.- Try to use ls The only command that proved to work is cd, not even init or reboot/shutdown. Impossible to install after this.
please don't cc the arch teams, they have nothing to do here.

Impossible to install after this. Let me clarify 2 points: 1. what are you trying to mount? 2. are you really mounting some partition under /mnt? If you're doing 2, iirc, there was at least at one point a bug that the system would stop responding if you mounted anything on /mnt. I suggest you try mounting whatever you're trying to mount on /mnt/gentoo as documented. I've lowered the priority as I'm almost sure this is an invalid bug, but I'll wait for the feedback before confirming and closing the bug.

The disk I partitioned had 3 partitions: the boot partition (ext4), the root partition (ext4) and the swap partition. I mounted the root partition when the bug appeared. I should have said that before. >If you're doing 2, iirc, there was at least at one point a bug that the system >would stop responding if you mounted anything on /mnt.

Fake bug. Only happens when you dont mount into /mnt/gentoo.
