Hellmut,
I have a full texlive installation on 64-bit Gentoo without problems: I don't
think it is a 64-bit problem.
One more simple check: is your /usr or / partition at 100%?
This can happen easily with Gentoo when installing large packages (and texlive
is immense) because the downloaded file is written to /usr/portage/distfiles,
then the downloaded file is extracted, probably to /tmp or /var/tmp, then the
package is installed, in /usr/share for texlive. This can easily exceed a
gigabyte of disk usage, and depending on your partition arrangement all of
these directories may be on the same partition.
