[gentoo-dev] How to make my own Stage 3 tarballs?

[gentoo-dev] How to make my own Stage 3 tarballs?

[Stuart Herbert]

Hi there,

I hope this isn't considered off-topic.

I'm interested in being able to put a copy of Gentoo onto a new machine in
the shortest possible time.  At the moment, it would seem that a Stage 3
tarball is the quickest way to achieve this.

I've read the documentation on gentoo.org about building stage tarballs.
How do I go about getting a copy of the gentoo-src module, so that I can
make my own tarballs?

Best regards,
Stu

You're in luck. I just packaged up stager for someone recently.

Get this tarball. Instructions have changed slightly - read 
stager.README and ChangeLog.

If you get stuck with it, feel free to contact me.

Hi John,

Thank you very much.  I'll get it down this morning, and have a good look
through it towards the end of next week.

Best regards,
Stu
