Yes, I mentioned that in my first post. Or by vanilla do you mean a |
15 |
kernel from kernel.org (as opposed to the Gentoo vanilla-sources |
16 |
kernel---that's the one I tried; isn't that identical to the kernel |
17 |
from kernel.org?) |

I haven't tried installing Gentoo with my SuSE kernel running. Huh... |
23 |
what a concept. With all the modularity of those default distro |
24 |
kernels, would that even work? Maybe I'd need the kernel, the |
25 |
System.map, and the /lib/modules/`uname -r` directory? |

I built the standard compiler that you get with |
30 |
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" (stable). gcc and friends. Whatever is the |
31 |
standard stable ebuild is the one I built. |
