Sorry for that too, I'm also new to Gentoo, and for an unknown re= ason, I trust it for a big project, so I must be sure of many things...

It uses emerge to build and install all packages in the stage. It

It's not clear to me on that point: is the "curren= tly-being-built-stage-or-livecd" emerge used, or is it the "catal= yst-running-host" emerge ?

Becau= se your target or guest system will be sufficiently different
