Perhaps I've missed this in the docs somewhere, but I'm not sure exactly
what happens when I "emerge system".

I presume there is a file somewhere that defines "system". What I'd like to
do is create a custom one with a view to building a secure server.

Can anyone shed a little light on this or point me to some docs that will
help?

Thanks,

Sean
