2920 + The Universal Installation CD contains everything you need to install

2926 - The Gentoo <e>Universal</e> Installation CD, a bootable CD with the same
2927 - abilities as the Minimal Installation CD. Additionally, it contains
2928 - several stage3 tarballs (optimized for the individual subarchitectures).
2929 + The Minimal Installation CD contains only a minimal environment that allows
2930 + you to boot up and configure your network so you can connect to the

4519 <title>Optional: Selecting Mirrors</title>
4520 <body>
4521
4522 <p>
4523 In order to download source code quickly it is recommended to select a fast
4524 mirror. Portage will look in your <path>make.conf</path> file for the
4525 GENTOO_MIRRORS variable and use the mirrors listed therein. You can surf to
4526 our <uri link="/main/en/mirrors.xml">mirror list</uri> and search
4527 for a mirror (or mirrors) close to you (as those are most frequently the
4528 fastest ones), but we provide a nice tool called <c>mirrorselect</c> which
4529 provides you with a nice interface to select the mirrors you want.
4530 </p>
4531
4532 <pre caption="Using mirrorselect for the GENTOO_MIRRORS variable">
4533 # <i>mirrorselect -i -o &gt;&gt; /mnt/gentoo/etc/make.conf</i>
4534 </pre>
4535
4536 <warn>
4537 Do not select any IPv6 mirrors. Our stages currently do not support IPv6.
4538 </warn>
4539
4540 <p>
4541 A second important setting is the SYNC setting in <path>make.conf</path>. This
4542 variable contains the rsync server you want to use when updating your Portage
4543 tree (the collection of ebuilds, scripts containing all the information Portage
4544 needs to download and install software). Although you can manually enter a SYNC
4545 server for yourself, <c>mirrorselect</c> can ease that operation for you:
4546 </p>
4547
4548 <pre caption="Selecting an rsync mirror using mirrorselect">
4549 # <i>mirrorselect -i -r -o &gt;&gt; /mnt/gentoo/etc/make.conf</i>
4550 </pre>
4551
4552 <p>
4553 After running <c>mirrorselect</c> it is adviseable to double-check the settings
4554 in <path>/mnt/gentoo/etc/make.conf</path> !

4562
4563 <p>
4564 One thing still remains to be done before we enter the new environment and that
4565 is copying over the DNS information in <path>/etc/resolv.conf</path>. You need
4566 to do this to ensure that networking still works even after entering the new
4567 environment. <path>/etc/resolv.conf</path> contains the nameservers for your
4568 network.

4584 allow the installation to use the kernel-provided information within the
4585 chrooted environment, and then mount-bind the <path>/dev</path> filesystem.

4597 <body>
4598
4599 <p>
4600 Now that all partitions are initialized and the base environment
4601 installed, it is time to enter our new installation environment by
4602 <e>chrooting</e> into it. This means that we change from the current
4603 installation environment (Installation CD or other installation medium) to your
4604 installation system (namely the initialized partitions).
4605 </p>
4606
4607 <p>
4608 This chrooting is done in three steps. First we will change the root
4609 from <path>/</path> (on the installation medium) to <path>/mnt/gentoo</path>
4610 (on your partitions) using <c>chroot</c>. Then we will create a new environment
4611 using <c>env-update</c>, which essentially creates environment variables.
4612 Finally, we load those variables into memory using <c>source</c>.
4613 </p>
4614
4615 <pre caption = "Chrooting into the new environment">
4616 # <i>chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash</i>
4617 # <i>env-update</i>
4618 >> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache...
4619 # <i>source /etc/profile</i>
4620 # <i>export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"</i>

4622
4623 <p>
4624 Congratulations! You are now inside your own Gentoo Linux environment.
4625 Of course it is far from finished, which is why the installation still
4626 has some sections left :-)

4637 <body>
4638
4639 <p>
4640 You should now update your Portage tree to the latest version. <c>emerge
4641 --sync</c> does this for you.
4642 </p>
4643
4644 <pre caption="Updating the Portage tree">

4646 <comment>(If you're using a slow terminal like some framebuffers or a serial
4647 console, you can add the --quiet option to speed up this process:)</comment>
4648 # <i>emerge --sync --quiet</i>

4650
4651 <p>
4652 If you are behind a firewall that blocks rsync traffic, you can use
4653 <c>emerge-webrsync</c> which will download and install a portage snapshot for
4654 you.
4655 </p>
4656
4657 <p>
4658 If you are warned that a new Portage version is available and that you should
4659 update Portage, you should do it now using <c>emerge portage</c> command.

4665 <title>Choosing the Right Profile</title>
4666 <body>
4667
4668 <p>
4669 First, a small definition is in place.
4670 </p>
4671
4672 <p>
4673 A profile is a building block for any Gentoo system. Not only does it specify
4674 default values for CHOST, CFLAGS and other important variables, it also locks
4675 the system to a certain range of package versions. This is all maintained by the
4676 Gentoo developers.
4677 </p>
4678
4679 <p>
4680 Since 2006.0, there has been a re-shuffle regarding the profiles for MIPS
4681 systems. These profiles set various options including USE flags, which affect
4682 what patchsets are enabled with various system-critical packages (notably,
4683 <c>gcc</c> and <c>mips-sources</c>).
4684 </p>
4685
4686 <p>
4687 Previously, such a profile was barely touched by the user. However, x86, hppa
4688 and alpha users can choose between two profiles, one for a 2.4 kernel and one
4689 for a 2.6 kernel. This requirement has been imposed to improve the integration
4690 of the 2.6 kernels. The ppc and ppc64 architectures have several profiles
4691 available as well. We will talk about those later.

4695 Thus, care needs to be taken to ensure the correct profile is selected for your
4696 system type. As of Gentoo/MIPS 2006.1, the profiles are:

4865 (1) NPTL is in-testing on MIPS at this stage, requiring
4866 <c>gcc-4.1</c> and <c>glibc-2.4</c>. These profiles
4867 are a work-in-progress, and are not guaranteed to work. It is recommended that
4868 people do not use these profiles until all the issues have been resolved.
4869 </impo>
4870
4871 <warn>
4872 (2) n32 Userland is highly experimental, a lot of software has problems with
4873 this ABI, and thus it is practically guaranteed that you will run into stability
4874 problems at some point. Work is being done to improve the situation, however,
4875 no support is offered if you use this profile, unless you're willing to help
4876 fix problems by submitting patches.
4877 </warn>
4878
4879 <warn>
4880 (3) n64 Userland at present is completely unsupported on all systems. At this
4881 time there are no stages available that support n64, and this isn't likely to
4882 change in the near future.

4886 You can see what profile you are currently using with the following command:

4892 </pre>
4893
4894 <p>
4895 Having looked through the profiles above, and decided which one is the most
4896 appropriate, you need to adjust your <path>make.profile</path> symlink to
4897 reflect this. By default, the profiles are in
4898 <path>/usr/portage/profiles</path>, so if you've moved your portage tree
4899 elsewhere (not recommended), adjust the commands below accordingly.

4912 A tip for those not familiar with the Bourne Again Shell... If you partially
4913 type a filename or command, then hit the TAB key, it will automatically fill out
4914 the command/filename until the last common character. E.g. typing
4915 <c>/usr/portage/profiles/def&lt;TAB&gt;</c>, <c>bash</c> will automatically put
4916 down <c>default-</c>. Pressing TAB a couple of more times will reveal the
4917 possibilities, <c>default-linux</c>, <c>default-darwin</c> and
4918 <c>default-bsd</c>. Give it a try, you'll find it very handy for navigating the
4919 command line.

4925 <title>Configuring the USE variable</title>
4926 <body>
4927
4928 <p>
4929 <c>USE</c> is one of the most powerful variables Gentoo provides to its users.
4930 Several programs can be compiled with or without optional support for certain
4931 items. For instance, some programs can be compiled with gtk-support, or with
4932 qt-support. Others can be compiled with or without SSL support. Some programs
4933 can even be compiled with framebuffer support (svgalib) instead of X11 support
4934 (X-server).
4935 </p>
4936
4937 <p>
4938 Most distributions compile their packages with support for as much as possible,
4939 increasing the size of the programs and startup time, not to mention an enormous
4940 amount of dependencies. With Gentoo you can define what options a package
4941 should be compiled with. This is where <c>USE</c> comes into play.
4942 </p>
4943
4944 <p>
4945 In the <c>USE</c> variable you define keywords which are mapped onto
4946 compile-options. For instance, <e>ssl</e> will compile ssl-support in the
4947 programs that support it. <e>-X</e> will remove X-server support (note the minus
4948 sign in front). <e>gnome gtk -kde -qt</e> will compile your programs with gnome
4949 (and gtk) support, and not with kde (and qt) support, making your system fully
4950 tweaked for GNOME.
4951 </p>
4952
4953 <p>
4954 The default <c>USE</c> settings are placed in the <path>make.defaults</path>
4955 files of your profile. You will find <path>make.defaults</path> files in the
4956 directory which <path>/etc/make.profile</path> points to and all parent
4957 directories as well. The default <c>USE</c> setting is the sum of all <c>USE</c>
4958 settings in all <path>make.defaults</path> files. What you place in
4959 <path>/etc/make.conf</path> is calculated against these defaults settings. If
4960 you add something to the <c>USE</c> setting, it is added to the default list. If
4961 you remove something from the <c>USE</c> setting (by placing a minus sign in
4962 front of it) it is removed from the default list (if it was in the default list
4963 at all). <e>Never</e> alter anything inside the <path>/etc/make.profile</path>
4964 directory; it gets overwritten when you update Portage!
4965 </p>

4968 A full description on <c>USE</c> can be found in the second part of the Gentoo
4969 Handbook, <uri link="?part=2&amp;chap=2">USE flags</uri>. A full description on
4970 the available USE flags can be found on your system in

4999 You will probably only use one or maybe two locales on your system. You can
5000 specify locales you will need in <path>/etc/locale.gen</path>.
5001 </p>

5004 # <i>nano -w /etc/locale.gen</i>

5008 The following locales are an example to get both English (United States) and
5009 German (Germany) with the accompanying character formats (like UTF-8).

5012 <pre caption="Specify your locales">

5017 </pre>
5018
5019 <p>
5020 The next step is to run <c>locale-gen</c>. It will generate all the locales you
5021 have specified in the <path>/etc/locale.gen</path> file.
5022 </p>
5023
5024 <note>
5025 <c>locale-gen</c> is available in <c>glibc-2.3.6-r4</c> and newer. If you have
5026 an older version of glibc, you should update it now.
