I think you should be able to boot RedHat to rescue mode, create your |
5 |
partitions and format. Then expanded the stage1 tarball onto the new |
6 |
partition. Do a chroot to the directory and follow the rest of the gentoo |
7 |
install instructions. I upgraded my RedHat 7 file server while it was |
8 |
running. I just created a directory, unpacked the stage1 tarball, did chroot |
9 |
and ran through the bootstrap process. I also went again and emerged quite a |
10 |
bit of packages I knew I needed. Afterwards I booted a rescue disk and moved |
11 |
the new directories in place. Worked great. |
