Hello Dale,

Acutally answering the question, with comments is a good 
idea.

But what I had in mind, that is much more pressing
is a list of additional questions, or
re-ordering the questions
or re-stating the quesions
or matrix logic on the causal relationships between 
these quesions and other questions
as to conclusion of valid install options
is more of what I had in mind.


Once that is reasoably vetted then
I would look for some statisical inferences
on the actual answers to these quetions

as well as valid install links
like sabayon for gentoo(ish) systemd
like calculate-linus for gentoo(ish)openrc
like pentoo for gentoo-penetration systems
like zentoo for gentoo CI systems
Like funtoo as an option install
like gentooliveUSB   for a gentoo + persistence experience.


I think this sort of approach will take some stress off of the
gentoo-user list and handbook whilst Blueness brings maturity
to his efforts; he alreayd has lilblue, tinhat and tor-ramdisk
gentoo installs, so he is one of those guys that can single-handedly
solve this crisis: should he put his fingers to the task.
MaffBlaster has been very quite of late.....

Blueness is a wonderful and collegial type of dev
and is currently seeking input on his 'alpha' ideas::
