I always run |
| 24 |
env-update ; source /etc/profile |
| 25 |
at this point as it is advised to do in Gentoo Handbook |
| 26 |

Why don't you set the final make.conf at this point? |
| 31 |
with the CHOST, CFLAGS, etc. for your target. |

After preretending (-p) you should actually do the |
| 41 |
bootstrapping with: |
| 42 |
./bootstrap.sh |
| 43 |
(this is in case you start form stage1) |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
> # emerge system |
| 46 |
> emerge -e system |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
What is the point of ruining emerge with --emptytree (-e)? |
| 49 |
I think emerge system should do it fine. |
| 50 |

| 54 |
This will be emerged as a dependency to portage, |
| 55 |
and if there is a bug regarding this (i have not had it |
| 56 |
manifested) it should be fixed in the ebuild or in the |
| 57 |
bootstrap script. |
| 58 |

| 62 |
Why compile anything again? |
| 63 |

| 67 |
|
| 68 |
You shouldn't change CHOST after getting to stage2. |

|
| 74 |
As it is for an embedded system add nodoc, noinfo and |
| 75 |
noman FEATURES to save space. |
