Those of us definitely involved with catalyst type builds always start with a stage3, since it saves a lot of time and the end result is no different once you've made your customizations and run an "emerge -e world". Besides, we spend enough time building from stage1 over and over and over again for each release. Why do it again on our machines when we install? -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead/QA Manager Games - Developer Gentoo Linux
