Personally, I do a stage 3 install, then edit /etc/make.conf, then run emerge sync After I have the new portage tree, I then emerge --update --deep --newuse world I think I have essentially a stage 1 install without having to re-compile working stuff that needs no changes. -- Phil Our 2nd CD: http://www.cdbaby.com/naomisfancy Naomi's Fancy performances: http://naomisfancy.virtualave.net/schedule.html -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
