+                subsystem.  Options should be encapsulated in quotes.
+		
+doapm           This loads APM driver support.  This requires you to also use
+                acpi=off.
+		
+dobladecenter   This adds some extra pauses into the boot process for the slow
+                USB CDROM of the IBM BladeCenter.
+		
+dopcmcia        This loads support for PCMCIA and Cardbus hardware and also
+                causes the pcmcia cardmgr to be started by the CD on boot.
+                This is only required when booting from a PCMCIA/Cardbus device.
+		
+doscsi          This loads support for most SCSI controllers.  This is also a
+                requirement for booting most USB devices, as they use the SCSI
+                subsystem of the kernel.
+		
+hda=stroke      This allows you to partition the whole hard disk even when your
+                BIOS is unable to handle large disks.  This option is only used
+                on machines with an older BIOS.  Replace hda with the device
+                that is requiring this option.
+		
+ide=nodma       This forces the disabling of DMA in the kernel and is required
+                by some IDE chipsets and also by some CDROM drives.  If your
+                system is having trouble reading from your IDE CDROM, try this
+                option.  This also disables the default hdparm settings from
+                being executed.
+		
+noapic          This disables the Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller
+                that is present on newer motherboards.  It has been known to
+                cause some problems on older hardware.
+		
+nodetect        This disables all of the autodetection done by the CD,
+		including device autodetection and DHCP probing.  This is
+		useful for doing debugging of a failing CD or driver.
+		
+nodhcp          This disables DHCP probing on detected network cards.  This is
+                useful on networks with only static addresses.
+		
+nodmraid        Disables support for device-mapper RAID, such as that used for
+                on-board IDE/SATA RAID controllers.
+		
+nofirewire      This disables the loading of Firewire modules. This should only
+		be necessary if your Firewire hardware is causing a problem
+		with booting the CD.
+		
+nogpm           This disables gpm console mouse support.
+
+nohotplug       This disables the loading of the hotplug and coldplug init
+                scripts at boot.  This is useful for doing debugging of a
+                failing CD or driver.
+		
+nokeymap        This disables the keymap selection used to select non-US
+                keyboard layouts.
+		
+nolapic         This disables the local APIC on Uniprocessor kernels.
+
+nosata          This disables the loading of Serial ATA modules.  This is
+		useful if your system is having problems with the SATA subsystem.
+		
+nosmp           This disables SMP, or Symmetric Multiprocessing, on SMP-enabled
+                kernels.  This is useful for debugging SMP-related issues with
+                certain drivers and motherboards.
+		
+nosound         This disables sound support and volume setting.  This is useful
+                for systems where sound support causes problems.
+		
+nousb           This disables the autoloading of USB modules.  This is useful
+                for debugging USB issues.
+
+<comment>Volume/Device Management:</comment>
+
+dodevfs         This enables the deprecated device filesystem on 2.6 systems.
+                You will also need to use noudev for this to take effect.
+                Since devfs is the only option with a 2.4 kernel, this option
+                has no effect if booting a 2.4 kernel.
+		
+doevms2         This enables support for IBM's pluggable EVMS, or Enterprise
+                Volume Management System.  This is not safe to use with lvm2.
+		
+dolvm2          This enables support for Linux's Logical Volume Management.
+                This is not safe to use with evms2.
+		
+noudev          This disables udev support on 2.6 kernels.  This option
+		requires that dodevfs is used. Since udev is not an option for
+		2.4 kernels, this options has no effect if booting a 2.4
+		kernel.
+		
+unionfs         Enables support for Unionfs on supported CD images.  This will
+                create a writable Unionfs overlay in a tmpfs, allowing you to
+                change any file on the CD.
+		
+unionfs=X       Enables support for Unionfs on supported CD images.  This will
+                create a writable Unionfs overlay on the device you specify.
+                The device must be formatted with a filesystem recognized and
+                writable by the kernel.
+
+<comment>Other options:</comment>
+
+debug           Enables debugging code. This might get messy, as it displays
+                a lot of data to the screen.
+		
+docache         This caches the entire runtime portion of the CD into RAM,
+		which allows you to umount /mnt/cdrom and mount another CDROM.
+		This option requires that you have at least twice as much
+		available RAM as the size of the CD.
+		
+doload=X        This causes the initial ramdisk to load any module listed, as
+		well as dependencies. Replace X with the module name. Multiple
+		modules can be specified by a comma-separated list.
+		
+noload=X        This causes the initial ramdisk to skip the loading of a
+                specific module that may be causing a problem.  Syntax matches
+                that of doload.
+		
+nox             This causes an X-enabled LiveCD to not automatically start X,
+                but rather, to drop to the command line instead.
+		
+scandelay       This causes the CD to pause for 10 seconds during certain

<section>
<title>Welcome</title>
<subsection>
<title>Before you begin</title>
<body>

<p>
After you boot the Gentoo Linux Installer LiveCD, it will attempt to load a
graphical desktop. If it is unable to do so, it will instead display a command
line prompt. To launch the installer, simply type:
</p>

<pre caption="Start the installer">
# <i>installer</i>
</pre>

<p>
Once the installer has finished loading, you will be greeted by the welcome
screen.  It provides a friendly introduction to the process of installing
Gentoo on your computer. Remember to read each option carefully.  There is
detailed help available for each step of installation at the top of the screen.
We recommend that you always read the help provided before making your choices.
Note that at any time during the installation process, you can save your
configuration progress in case you need to resume your installation at a later
time. Use the <c>Tab</c> key (on your keyboard) to move around the menus within
a screen and the <c>Enter</c> key to confirm an action.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
</section>

<section>
<title>Partitioning</title>
<subsection>
<title>Preparing the disks</title>
<body>

<p>
In order to install Gentoo on your machine, you will need to prepare your
disks. The <c>Partitioning</c> screen will show you a list of detected disks and
allow you to specify the filesystems you would like to have on your
partitions. Selecting <c>Clear partitions</c> will erase all previous partitions on
your disk, so be careful with this option! It is also possible to resize
certain partition types.
</p>

<p>
If you choose to go with the <c>Recommended layout</c>, the installer will
create three partitions: 100MB for <path>/boot</path>, a <path>/swap</path>
partition up to 512MB in size, and the rest of the available space on the disk
is used for <path>/</path>, the root partition. If you have more than 4GB of
unpartitioned space, using the "Recommended layout" will automatically configure
your partitions without destroying any data on any existing partitions. 
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
</section>

<section>
<title>Network Mounts</title>
<subsection>
<title>Optional: Define network mounts</title>
<body>

<p>
This screen lets you set up and use any existing network mounts during and
after installation. Select <c>New</c> to begin configuration. At this time, only NFS
is supported.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
</section>

<section>
<title>Stage Selection</title>
<subsection>
<title>Dynamic stage generation</title>
<body>

<p>
Since you are performing an installation <e>without</e> an internet connection,
you <e>must</e> select <c>GRP</c> from the stage options present. Then, on the next
screen, select <c>Create from CD</c>. Everything you need to build your system will
then be generated from the files on the LiveCD.
</p>

<warn>
Do <e>not</e> select any options other than those specified above when you are
installing without an internet connection.
</warn>

</body>
</subsection>
</section>

<section>
<title>Kernel Sources</title>
<subsection>
<title>Using the LiveCD kernel</title>
<body>

<p>
You must use the kernel present on the LiveCD for the GRP/networkless
install. This is merely a <c>gentoo-sources</c> kernel compiled by
<c>genkernel</c>, Gentoo's automated compilation utility, and will give you a
kernel that automatically detects and configures your hardware upon boot.
</p>

<p>
Select <c>LiveCD kernel</c> and continue to the next screen.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
</section>

<section>
<title>Bootloader</title>
<subsection>
<title>Making your choice</title>
<body>

<p>
This screen allows to you choose your bootloader. The installer will
automatically configure your choice.
</p>

<!-- do we need to cover all the stuff about lilo/grub and kernel parameter
lines and/or block devices here? -->
</body>
</subsection>
</section>

<section>
<title>Timezone</title>
<subsection>
<title>Choose your timezone</title>
<body>

<p>
Study the list and select the region closest to your actual location.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
</section>

<section>
<title>Networking</title>
<subsection>
<title>Add network device</title>
<body>

<p>
On this screen, you will be able to configure the various network interface
devices detected on your computer. Read the available options carefully.
</p>

<p>
The next screen gives you a choice between DHCP and manual IP address
configuration. Once your network interface is properly configured, you will
need to create a hostname for your system. Optionally, you may specify a
domainname and any DNS server information needed.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
</section>

<section>
<title>Extra Packages</title>
<subsection>
<title>Optional: installing extra packages</title>
<body>

<p>
The LiveCD contains a number of available pre-built packages. If you wish to
install any of them, check the appropriate box.
</p>

<impo>
As you are installing Gentoo without an internet connection, you cannot add
any extra packages other than those shown in the installer.
</impo>

</body>
</subsection>
</section>

<section>
<title>Users</title>
<subsection>
<title>Adding users and groups</title>
<body>

<p>
First set the root password for the system administrator (the <e>root</e>
user).
</p>

<p>
We <e>strongly</e> recommend that you create a regular user for daily work.
Working as root all the time is <e>dangerous</e> and should be avoided! Create
your users, set their passwords, and add them to the appropriate groups. You
can optionally change their home directories, select their login shell, and set
helpful comments.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
</section>

<section>
<title>Review</title>
<subsection>
<title>Finishing up</title>
<body>

<p>
Please take the time to double-check each step of the installation process,
ensuring that your system is properly configured. When you have finished
reviewing, you may save your progress and exit, or select <c>Install</c> to
begin automatically installing Gentoo.
</p>

<p>
The installer will alert you when it has finished. It will then return you to
the command prompt. All you need to do to reboot is type:
</p>

<pre caption="Rebooting">
# <i>shutdown -r now</i>
</pre>

<p>
Congratulations, your system is now fully equipped! Continue with <uri

process of installing Gentoo on your computer. Remember to read each option
carefully. There is detailed help available for each step of installation;
just click <c>Help</c> in the lower left corner of the installer. We recommend that
you always read the help pages before making your choices. Note that at any
time during the installation process, you can save your configuration
progress in case you need to resume your installation at a later time.

<title>Pre-installation Configuration</title>
<subsection>
<title>Optional: Manual Network Configuration</title>
<body>

<p>
In the next section, you are required to configure your network. The Installer
should have already detected and set up your network for you, but if it didn't,
you can manually configure your network. On the <e>Misc.</e> tab, you can
specify a location of your choice or keep the default of
<path>/var/log/installer.log</path> where the Installer will store its logs.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
<subsection>
<title>Optional: Remote Installation</title>
<body>

<p>
If you wish to enable SSH access to the machine, you can start <c>sshd</c> and
specify a root password.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
<subsection>
<title>Optional: Load Additional Kernel Modules</title>
<body>

<p>
If you need to load more kernel modules to support your hardware, enter their
names into the appropriate line, each separated by a space.
</p>

<warn>
Do not change the <e>Install mode</e> selection to anything besides
<b>Normal</b>. This feature is still experimental and changing it will leave you
with an unbootable system!

<section>
<title>Partitioning</title>
<subsection>
<title>Preparing the disks</title>
<body>

<p>
In order to install Gentoo on your machine, you will need to prepare your
disks. The <e>Partitioning</e> screen will show you a list of detected disks and
allow you to specify the filesystems you would like to have on your
partitions. Clicking <c>Clear partitions</c> will erase all previous partitions on
your disk, so be careful with this option! It is also possible to resize
certain partition types.
</p>

<p>
If you choose to go with the <c>Recommended layout</c>, the installer will
create three partitions: 100MB for <path>/boot</path>, a <path>/swap</path>
partition up to 512MB in size, and the rest of the available space on the disk
is used for <path>/</path>, the root partition. If you have more than 4GB of
unpartitioned space, using the "Recommended layout" will automatically configure
your partitions without destroying any data on any existing partitions. 
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
</section>

<section>
<title>Network Mounts</title>
<subsection>
<title>Optional: Define network mounts</title>
<body>

<p>
This screen lets you set up and use any existing network mounts during and after
installation. Click <c>New</c> to begin configuration. At this time, only NFS is
supported.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>

<section>
<title>Stage Selection</title>
<subsection>
<title>Dynamic stage generation</title>
<body>

<p>
Since you are performing an installation <e>without</e> an internet
connection, you <b>must</b> check <c>GRP Install</c> as well as <c>Dynamic</c>
from the options present. Everything you need to build your system will
then be generated from the files on the LiveCD.
</p>

<warn>
Do <e>not</e> select options other than those specified above when you are
installing without an internet connection.
</warn>

</body>

<section>
<title>Portage Tree</title>
<subsection>
<title>Obtaining a Portage tree</title>
<body>

<p>
You must choose <c>Snapshot</c> on this screen. The installer will automatically
install a Portage tree from the LiveCD once you select <c>Snapshot</c>; you do not
need to specify a snapshot URI.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
</section>

<section>
<title>make.conf</title>
<subsection>
<title>USE flags</title>
<body>

<p>
Since you are performing a GRP/networkless install, you will not be allowed
to select USE flags before installation. However, you are free to set your own
USE flags in <path>/etc/make.conf</path> after you have rebooted into your
finished system.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
<subsection>
<title>CFLAGS</title>
<body>

<p>
You should, however, select your processor type in the <e>CFLAGS</e> section along
with any custom optimizations you may want, such as <c>-O2</c> and
<c>-pipe</c>.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
<subsection>
<title>Other</title>
<body>

<p>
Any other options you wish to set for future use should be selected now. <e>Use
unstable (~arch)</e> will allow you to use packages from the unstable branch of
the Portage tree. <e>Build binary packages</e> creates ready-to-install binary
tarballs of all packages you compile on your system. <e>DistCC</e> allows you to
share the burden of compiling with another computer via your network
connection.<e>ccache</e> saves compiled code for later use, and thus can greatly
speed up compilation time if you re-install the same package.
</p>

<p>
You will not be allowed to change your <e>CHOST</e>, as this can seriously damage
your installation. In <e>MAKEOPTS</e> you define how many parallel compilations
should occur when you install a package. A good choice is the number of CPUs
in your system plus one, but this guideline isn't always perfect. On a
uniprocessor system, <c>-j2</c> might be used.
</p>

</body>

<section>
<title>Kernel Sources</title>
<subsection>
<title>Using the LiveCD kernel</title>
<body>

<p>
You must use the kernel present on the LiveCD for the GRP/networkless install.
This is merely a <c>gentoo-sources</c> kernel compiled by <c>genkernel</c>,
Gentoo's automated kernel compilation utility and will give you a kernel that
automatically detects and configures your hardware upon boot.
</p>

<p>
If you want to have a nifty background image during system boot, select the
<c>Enable bootsplash</c> option.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
</section>

<section>
<title>Bootloader</title>
<subsection>
<title>Making your choice</title>
<body>

<p>
This screen allows to you choose your bootloader and, optionally, specify
additional kernel parameters that will be used at bootup.
</p>

<p>
You may specify which disk to boot from by choosing the appropriate option
from <e>Boot Drive</e>. In Linux, the first IDE disk in your system is called
<c>hda</c>, the second IDE disk is <c>hdb</c>, and so on. If you have SATA or
SCSI disks, they will be called <c>sda</c>, <c>sdb</c>, etc. Please make the
correct selection for your system.
</p>
<!-- more bootloader inclusions needed about vga, etc. just don't include pure
CLI stuff, but only what can go on the extra kernel params line -->
<p>
If you need to pass any additional options to the kernel, such as video and/or
VGA statements, simply add them to the "Extra kernel parameters" section.
</p>

<p>
If you jumpered your harddrive because the BIOS can't handle large harddrives
you'll need to append <c>hdx=stroke</c>. If you have SCSI devices, you should
add <c>doscsi</c> as a kernel option.
</p>

<!-- do we need to cover all the stuff about lilo/grub and kernel parameter
lines and/or block devices here? -->

<section>
<title>Introduction</title>
<subsection>
<title>Welcome!</title>
<body>

<p>
First of all, <e>welcome</e> to Gentoo. You are about to enter the world
of customization and performance. When installing Gentoo, this is made clear to
you several times -- you can choose how much you want to compile yourself, how
to install Gentoo, what system logger you want, etc.
</p>

<p>
Gentoo is a fast, modern meta-distribution with a clean and flexible
design. Gentoo is built around free software and doesn't hide from its
users what is beneath the hood. Portage, the package maintenance system
which Gentoo uses, is written in Python, meaning you can easily view and
modify the source code. Gentoo's packaging system uses source code
(although support for precompiled packages is included too) and
configuring Gentoo happens through regular text files. In other words,
openness everywhere.
</p>

<p>
It is very important that you understand that <e>empowerment</e> is what makes
Gentoo run. We try not to force anything on our users and try our best to
empower you to make the choices you wish. If you feel a change should be made,
please file a <uri link="http://bugs.gentoo.org">bug report</uri> about it.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
<subsection>
<title>How do I go about Installing Gentoo?</title>
<body>

<p>
Gentoo Linux comes with two versions of an easy to use Installer. A GTK+ based
installer (for use with an X based environment) and a Dialog based installer for
use on the console. Chapter 3 of the handbook deals with the GTK+ based
installer while Chapter 4 is for the Dialog based one.
</p>

<p>
Sometimes, you are given a certain choice in the handbook. We try our best to
explain what the pros and cons are. We will continue then with a default choice,
identified by &quot;Default: &quot; in the title. The other possibilities are
marked by &quot;Alternative: &quot;. Do <e>not</e> think that the default is
what we recommend. It is however what we believe most users will use.
</p>

<p>
Sometimes you can pursue an optional step. Such steps are marked as
&quot;Optional: &quot; and are therefore not needed to install Gentoo.
However, some optional steps are dependant on a previous decision you
made. We will inform you when this happens, both when you make the
decision, and right before the optional step is described.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
<subsection>
<title>What are my Options?</title>
<body>

<p>
You can install Gentoo in many different ways. You can download and install from
one of our Installation CDs, from an existing distribution, from a bootable CD
(such as Knoppix), from a netbooted environment, from a rescue floppy, etc. 
</p>

<p>
This document covers the installation using a Gentoo Linux Installation CD, a 
bootable CD that contains everything you need to get Gentoo Linux up and 
running.  There are two types of Installation CDs, the InstallCD and the
Installer LiveCD.  The InstallCD is a minimal environment which contains only
those packages necessary for installing Gentoo Linux. The LiveCD is a complete
Gentoo Linux environment and can be used for multiple tasks, one of which is
installing Gentoo Linux. The LiveCD is not available on all architectures at
this time. If your architecture does not have a LiveCD, then this document will
refer to the Universal InstallCD for you.
</p>

<p>
This installation approach however does not immediately use the latest version
of the available packages; if you want this you should check out the
Installation Instructions inside our <uri
link="/doc/en/handbook/index.xml">Gentoo Linux Handbooks</uri>.
</p>

<p>
For help on the other installation approaches, 
please read our <uri link="/doc/en/altinstall.xml">Alternative Installation
Guide</uri>. We also provide a <uri
link="/doc/en/gentoo-x86-tipsntricks.xml">Gentoo Installation Tips &amp; 
Tricks</uri> document that might be useful to read as well. If you feel that 
the current installation instructions are too elaborate, feel free to use our 
Quick Installation Guide available from our <uri 
link="/doc/en/index.xml">Documentation Resources</uri> if your architecture
has such a document available.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
<subsection>
<title>Troubles?</title>
<body>

<p>
If you find a problem in the installation (or in the installation
documentation), please check the errata from our <uri
link="/proj/en/releng/">Gentoo Release Engineering Project</uri>, 
visit our <uri link="http://bugs.gentoo.org">bug tracking
system</uri> and check if the bug is known. If not, please create a bug report 
for it so we can take care of it. Do not be afraid of the developers who are 
assigned to (your) bugs -- they generally don't eat people.
</p>

<p>
Note though that, although the document you are now reading is
architecture-specific, it will contain references to other architectures as
well. This is due to the fact that large parts of the Gentoo Handbook use source
code that is common for all architectures (to avoid duplication of efforts and
starvation of development resources). We will try to keep this to a minimum
to avoid confusion.
</p>

<p>
If you are uncertain if the problem is a user-problem (some error you
made despite having read the documentation carefully) or a
software-problem (some error we made despite having tested the
installation/documentation carefully) you are free to join #gentoo on
irc.freenode.net. Of course, you are welcome otherwise too :)
</p>

<p>
If you have a question regarding Gentoo, check out our <uri
link="/doc/en/faq.xml">Frequently Asked
Questions</uri>, available from the <uri
link="/doc/en/">Gentoo Documentation</uri>. You can
also view the <uri
link="http://forums.gentoo.org/viewforum.php?f=40">FAQs</uri> on our
<uri link="http://forums.gentoo.org">forums</uri>. If you can't find the answer
there ask on #gentoo, our IRC-channel on irc.freenode.net. Yes, several of
us are freaks who sit on IRC :-)

<section>
<title>Fast Installation using the Gentoo Reference Platform</title>
<subsection>
<title>What is the Gentoo Reference Platform?</title>
<body>

<p>
The Gentoo Reference Platform, from now on abbreviated to GRP, is a snapshot of
prebuilt packages users (that means you!) can install during the installation
of Gentoo to speed up the installation process. The GRP consists of all
packages required to have a fully functional Gentoo installation. They are not
just the ones you need to have a base installation up to speed in no time, but
all lengthier builds (such as xorg-x11, GNOME, OpenOffice, Mozilla, ...)
are available as GRP packages too.
</p>

<p>
However, these prebuilt packages aren't maintained during the lifetime of the
Gentoo distribution. They are snapshots released at every Gentoo release and
make it possible to have a functional environment in a short amount of time. You
can then upgrade your system in the background while working in your Gentoo
environment.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
<subsection>
<title>How Portage Handles GRP Packages</title>
<body>

<p>
Your Portage tree - the collection of <e>ebuilds</e> (files that contain all 
information about a package, such as its description, homepage, sourcecode URLs,
compilation instructions, dependencies, etc.) - must be synchronised with the 
GRP set: the versions of the available ebuilds and their accompanying GRP 
packages must match.
</p>

<p>
For this reason you can only benefit from the GRP packages Gentoo provides while
performing the current installation approach. GRP is not available for those
interested in performing an installation using the latest versions of all
available packages.
</p>

</body>
</subsection>
<subsection>
<title>Is GRP Available?</title>
<body>

<p>
Not all architectures provide GRP packages. That doesn't mean GRP isn't
supported on the other architectures, but it means that we don't have the 
resources to build and test the GRP packages.
</p>

<p>
At present we provide GRP packages for the following architectures:
</p>

<ul>
  <li>
    The <b>amd64</b> architecture (amd64)
  </li>
  <li>
    The <b>ppc</b> architecture (ppc32, ppc64)
  </li>
  <li>
    The <b>sparc</b> architecture (sparc64)
  </li>
  <li>
    The <b>x86</b> architecture (athlon, athlon-xp, athlon-mp, pentium-pro,
    pentium2, pentium3, pentium4 and pentium-m) Note: The packages are for i686
    and are available on the Installer LiveCD.
  </li>
</ul>

<p>
If your architecture (or subarchitecture) isn't on this list, you are not
able to opt for a GRP installation.
</p>

<p>
Now that this introduction is over, let's continue with <uri
link="?part=1&amp;chap=2">Booting the Universal InstallCD/Installer
LiveCD</uri>.
