Good point! The docs are really getting better since I read them from beginning to end four years ago. However, the only problem is that some X% (my estimate is 50%) of the n00bs will never go back and ask or search. Might be wrong of course. May be a specific link from the download page? Jeffrey? e.g.: For more information on the Gentoo CDs, see <a href="http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=2#doc_chap2";>the information</a> in Chapter 2 of the <a href="http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/";>Gentoo Handbook</a>. (mind HanbookS vs. Handbook) BTW, here: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/2006.0/index.xml One can find a bunch of cryptic (for a n00b) links to the archs... I am sure most n00bs tunning x86 don't know that fact, while most on alpha should not be n00bs anyway. Add a cross-ref explaining what is an arch? In the bottom table, better to s/Links/Architectures/ ? Shall I file a bug report for that, or somebody will pick it up from here?
