The Gentoo Release Engineering team is pushing us to remove stage1 and |
2 |
stage2 references from the Gentoo Handbook. They are getting too many errors |
3 |
because the user is not able to fully comprehend the implications of a |
4 |
stage1 or stage2 installation. |

This does surprise me, either because it seems rather simple to me, or |
7 |
because I don't understand it myself (in which case we need(ed) better |
8 |
information regarding the subject). |

In any case, bug #105809 contains a small patch (95K, 3165 lines, mostly |
11 |
duplicates for architecture-specific chapters that do contain |
12 |
cross-architecture information) that attempts to move stage1/2 references to |
13 |
a FAQ in the Gentoo FAQ. |

15 |
I'd appreciate any feedback on the patch and possible enhancements. Please, |
16 |
do not provide patches for the patch but rather a new patch. Thanks. |
