Considering there is a "Gentoo Embedded" project that has been releasing |
| 8 |
stages, I would say yes. In fact, they have stages for several |
| 9 |
architectures available. Check out /experimental/$arch/embedded/stages |
| 10 |
on a local mirror that mirrors /experimental. |

One thing to remember is that these stages are complete stage3, just |
| 13 |
using uclibc, so there may still be packages that you do not require for |
| 14 |
your end system. |
