Hello!

I am thinking of porting Gentoo to Alpha. Can anyone give me some pointers how
I should go about this? I especially like to hear from the PPC/Sparc
developers, what procedure was used? Can I just install the whole portage
stuff on another linux distro (with python on it, of course) and use it to
make a stage1 tarball somehow? (by merging in the required packages (which
packages are in the stage1 tarball?) and making a tarball of it?)
Thanks in advance for any help. I'll keep you updated on my progress.

Michel Wilson.

There are some stage rolling scripts in the gentoo-src module that you may 
want to look into.

This is a CVS module, right? How do I get CVS access? Anonymous CVS doesn't 
seem to work, and www.gentoo.org doesn't say anything about it, either.

Thanks,

Michel.
