Thing about Gentoo (which I love), is it is very flexible. |

In this case I am sure you will be delighted to know that you |
| 17 |
can do: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
# cd /etc/conf.d |
| 20 |
# cat * > basic |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
---- OR ---- |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
# cd /etc/conf.d |
| 25 |
# cat * > /etc/rc.conf |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Breaking things up, just generally helps with the packaging, |
| 28 |
but you can still only use /etc/rc.conf, or /etc/conf.d/basic |
| 29 |
for any of your rc-script config needs. |
