Try "emerge rsync" to include the latest changes to the packages list. I
have seen bad packages slip through that are updated within day or two.
Then "emerge portage" to insure you are using the latest and greatest
version.
Next "emerge -p system" which will check for missing/outdated packages
in the basic system and print a list of any that are missing or need to
be updated.
If any packages are listed in the above step, run "emerge system" to
finish stage 2. Once finished with this you are ready to emerge whatever
software you wish to add to the basic system.

Without any error messages to go by, this is my best shot at getting
stage 2 finished for you.
