Hello everybody,
Can someone give me a tip(s) on how to proceed with
this minimal install?
I note on the CD big files such as image.squasfs
and
gentoo.igz but the little on-line about them is not
very helpful.
I think I can start ppp and prepare the harddrive
but
beyond that darkness looms :^(
Have you read the install handbooks yet?
Yes. To paraphrase what I found: "if you want you can
use the minimal install CD." If you got a link to
something a trifle more verbose I'd sure like to
follow it.
the only difference (and this is spelled out in the install docs) is
that instead of using the snapshot and stage file from the cd, you
download it (and THAT is mentioned in the docs, or was last time I
did a gentoo install). It says "we'll show you how to use the cd
first, as that's the usual route", but the section after that shows
you how to download the stage file and snapshot. (i'm paraphrasing
here, before anyone goes nuts on me for misquoting).
