3 Ok, so I started on http://gentoo-wiki.com/Portage-prefix at the very
4 top of the page. I downloaded
5 http://dev.gentoo.org/~kito/distfiles/portage-prefix-latest.tar.bz2
6 and then configured and installed portage in ~/gentoo, and then the
7 page sort of drops off.
8
9 Running ~/gentoo/usr/bin/emerge gives:
10
11 >>> //Users/nathan/gentoo/tmp doesn't exist, creating it...
12 >>> //Users/nathan/gentoo/var/tmp doesn't exist, creating it...
13 >>> //Users/nathan/gentoo/var/lib doesn't exist, creating it...
14 !!! Problem with sandbox binary. Disabling...
15
16 --- 'profiles/updates' is empty or not available. Empty portage tree?
17 emerge: wheel group use is being deprecated. Please update group and passwd to
18 include the portage user as noted above, and then use group portage.
19 !!! ARCH is not set... Are you missing the /etc/make.profile symlink?
20 !!! Is the symlink correct? Is your portage tree complete?

24 Then, further down on the page there's an "OSX quick bootstrap
25 (experimental)" section. It starts off with "First, find the
26 bootstrap script and let it install portage."
27
28 Elsewhere on the page it says "Bootstrapping is done using a bootstrap
29 script in ${PORTDIR}/scripts/bootstrap-prefix.sh." <-- but theres no
30 bootstrap-prefix.sh anywhere in my ~/gentoo

34 What next?
