[gentoo-user] Gentoo in chroot on s390

[Enrico Weigelt]

Hi folks,


I've got some RHEL instance on an z/VM (s390) and like to get
Gentoo running in chroot. Did anyone already do that ?
Or any HOWTO ?


thx

Me, some time ago. :) Have a look at 
http://www.binro.org/gentoo-2008.6-s390x-unofficial.tar.bz2

Unpack it and follow the README. If you already have a RHEL image running it's 
much easier because you do not need the starter system: just format new DASD, 
unpack the stage 3 onto them and chroot.

Have fun!
