I would also suggest having your own portage tree for embedded purposes. |

It's been working for me for quite some time. You can patch your own |
| 11 |
ebuilds very easily to remove a lot of bloat from the 'mainstream' ebuilds. |

Portage also lends itself very easily to using overlays as |
| 14 |
'configurations'. What I mean is... you could a) have your own portage |
| 15 |
tree, and b) have an overlay that configures /etc/files to defaults for |
| 16 |
client A and c) have another overlay that configures /etc/config for |
| 17 |
client B |
