It's targeted at embedded systems and the like where you want to be very |
| 22 |
specific about what you want to install. |

how about the following? |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
mkdir /my/very/own/root |
| 35 |
ROOT="/my/very/own/root/" emerge system |
| 36 |
chroot /my/very/own/root |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
I believe that next on the list for non-"/" installs will be installing into |
| 39 |
one's home directory. "chroot" type installs may come after that. |
