Thanks, so does the installer do a kind of quickpkg on the live system |
| 15 |
followed by emerge --usepkg inside the chroot? |

This is unfortunate because I have found the installer a little flaky. |
| 18 |
I'd prefer to do an install manually then be able to do emerge --usepkg |
| 19 |
against a directory full of packages. |

Is there some way I can get the functionality you speak of? Is there |
| 22 |
somewhere in CVS I can look at? |
| 23 |

Cheers. |
