(gentoo install being as easy as possible) That has never been the case. The entire *point* of bootstrap is so that you can *customize* the system. If you're doing "/usr/portage/scripts/bootstrap.sh; emerge -e system" with no customization, you're wasting your time. You get identical results from a "stage3 tarball + edit make.conf + emerge -e system + emerge -v depclean", and it is a faster method, too. > At the moment, "/usr/portage/scripts/bootstrap.sh; emerge -e system" > produces a system, that is IMHO unexpected for most users. This is exactly why we do not recommend a stage1 installation to anyone that is unwilling to do work to modify the installation themselves. Using stage1 assumes that you know what you are doing. > That's not a problem for me. So excuse me that i wanted > gentoo-installation to be more simple. It is quite simple. The documentation is quite extensive on installing from a stage3 tarball. How much simpler can you get? ;] --=20 Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead x86 Architecture Team Games - Developer Gentoo Linux --=-jQdtfECFa+rOFT4eyG6H Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBD2AGhkT4lNIS36YERAkMrAJ9+ITmqZPCL1gO43JW4wmZMdeoCZwCfes9N i1lJ5fdWq4NRidsqB1pSty4= =BJ1L -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-jQdtfECFa+rOFT4eyG6H-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
