I might be missing this somewhere in the documentation, but how do you
handle the install when your behind a firewall and all web access has to be
done through a proxy.

It's not in the documentation, but after you've unpacked the system 
image, go into /etc/wget/ and edit wget's config file.

Doing this makes wget (portage downloader and all-around-nifty utility) 
use your HTTP proxy; however, updating your portage tree (emerge rsync) 
can't, to my knowledge, be done through HTTP -- so, you may be out of 
luck.

Hi there.
I have what I think is a fairly simple question.
I have been through the install process (following your install docs) 
with the stage 1 ix86 ISO. No problems.
I'm wondering now, though, how I go about installing from one of the 
other versions. To be more specific, I'm curious what I need to do to 
install gentoo from "stage3-i586_pentium.mmx-1.4_rc1.tar.bz2". Stage 1 
is nice, but it takes far too long on a pentium 200 machine, which is 
why I'm looking for a stage 3 install... but without there being an ISO 
setup the way the stage 1 is, I don't know how to go about installing 
it. Are there docs somewhere else that tell me this? Please let me know, 
cause I love your product. I'm just not Linux-savvy enough, I guess, to 
figure this one out. :)

thanks,
james

the install docs explain how to do this ...
basically just cd into the base directory and extract
the tar.bz2 and then chroot
