I have a day off work and it is too hot to play outside, so I got the
bright idea to clean up some minor warnings I have been getting. When I
am booting my computer, I get warnings to change from using
/etc/hostname to /etc/conf.d/hostname. Also the same with my
/etc/domainname. My first though was these topics would be covered in
the Gentoo install manual. But after re-reading the manual I find no
difference now than when I installed everything a few months ago. Is
there something I need to do, or do I live with this for now?

IIRC, I just copied my /etc/hostname to /etc/conf.d/hostname.

Did that remove the warning for you? After I re-did both files, I am
still getting the same warning.

I did this:
rm /etc/hostname
nano -w /etc/conf.d/hostname
[ edit properly ]
env-update
reboot
No problems...

Removing the files did the job. Sounds like another evil plot to force
me to clean up unused files. :-)
Thanks!

I never had that problem, as I reboot every day, so env-update gets run.
