Once the Gentoo Linux Installer (GLI) has finished loading, you will be |
| 111 |
greeted by the welcome screen. It provides a friendly introduction to the |
| 112 |
process of installing Gentoo on your computer. Remember to read each option |
| 113 |
carefully. There is detailed help available for each step of installation; |
| 114 |
just click <c>Help</c> in the lower left corner of the installer. We recommend that |
| 115 |
you always read the help pages before making your choices. Note that at any |
| 116 |
time during the installation process, you can save your configuration |
| 117 |
progress in case you need to resume your installation at a later time. |

In the next section, you are required to configure your network. The Installer |

you can manually configure your network. On the <e>Misc.</e> tab, you can optionally |

<p> |
| 176 |
In order to install Gentoo on your machine, you will need to prepare your |
| 177 |
disks. The <e>Partitioning</e> screen will show you a list of detected disks and |
| 178 |
allow you to specify the filesystems you would like to have on your |
| 179 |
partitions. Clicking <c>Clear partitions</c> will erase all previous partitions on |
| 180 |
your disk, so be careful with this option! It is also possible to resize |
| 181 |
certain partition types. |
| 182 |
</p> |
| 183 |
|
| 184 |
<p> |
| 185 |
If you choose to go with the <c>Recommended layout</c>, the installer will |
| 186 |
create three partitions: 100MB for <path>/boot</path>, a <path>/swap</path> |
| 187 |
partition up to 512MB in size, and the rest of the available space on the disk |
| 188 |
is used for <path>/</path>, the root partition. If you have more than 4GB of |
| 189 |
unpartitioned space, using the "Recommended layout" will automatically configure |
| 190 |
your partitions without destroying any data on any existing partitions. |

<p> |
| 242 |
You must choose <e>Snapshot</e> on this screen. The installer will automatically |

install a Portage tree from the LiveCD once you select <e>Snapshot</e>; you do not |
| 244 |
need to specify a snapshot URI. |

<p> |
| 258 |
Since you are performing a GRP/networkless install, you will not be allowed |
| 259 |
to select USE flags before installation. However, you are free to set your own |
| 260 |
USE flags in <path>/etc/make.conf</path> after you have rebooted into your |

You should, however, select your processor type in the <e>CFLAGS</e> section along |

Any other options you wish to set for future use should be selected now. <e>Use |
| 284 |
unstable (~arch)</e> will allow you to use packages from the unstable branch of |
| 285 |
the Portage tree. <e>Build binary packages</e> creates ready-to-install binary |
| 286 |
tarballs of all packages you compile on your system. <e>DistCC</e> allows you to |
| 287 |
share the burden of compiling with another computer via your network |
| 288 |
connection.<e>ccache</e> saves compiled code for later use, and thus can greatly |
| 289 |
speed up compilation time if you re-install the same package. |
| 290 |
</p> |
| 291 |
|
| 292 |
<p> |
| 293 |
You will not be allowed to change your <e>CHOST</e>, as this can seriously damage |
| 294 |
your installation. In <e>MAKEOPTS</e> you define how many parallel compilations |
| 295 |
should occur when you install a package. A good choice is the number of CPUs |
| 296 |
in your system plus one, but this guideline isn't always perfect. On a |
| 297 |
uniprocessor system, <c>-j2</c> might be used. |

<p> |

You must use the kernel present on the LiveCD for the GRP/networkless install. |
| 312 |
This is merely a <c>gentoo-sources</c> kernel compiled by <c>genkernel</c>, |
| 313 |
Gentoo's automated kernel compilation utility and will give you a kernel that |
| 314 |
automatically detects and configures your hardware upon boot. |
| 315 |

This screen allows to you choose your bootloader and, optionally, specify |

additional kernel parameters that will be used at bootup. |

</p> |
| 336 |
|
| 337 |
<p> |
| 338 |
You may specify which disk to boot from by choosing the appropriate option |
| 339 |
from <e>Boot Drive</e>. In Linux, the first IDE disk in your system is called |
| 340 |
<c>hda</c>, the second IDE disk is <c>hdb</c>, and so on. If you have SATA or |
| 341 |
SCSI disks, they will be called <c>sda</c>, <c>sdb</c>, etc. Please make the |
| 342 |
correct selection for your system. |
| 343 |
</p> |
| 344 |
<!-- more bootloader inclusions needed about vga, etc. just don't include pure |
| 345 |
CLI stuff, but only what can go on the extra kernel params line --> |
| 346 |
<p> |
| 347 |
If you need to pass any additional options to the kernel, such as video and/or |
| 348 |
VGA statements, simply add them to the "Extra kernel parameters" section. |
| 349 |
</p> |
| 350 |
|
| 351 |
<p> |
| 352 |
If you jumpered your harddrive because the BIOS can't handle large harddrives |
| 353 |
you'll need to append <c>hdx=stroke</c> or for instance, if you have SCSI |

devices, you should add <c>doscsi</c> as kernel option. |

The LiveCD contains a number of available pre-built packages. If you wish to |
| 434 |
install any of them, check the appropriate box. |
| 435 |
</p> |

<impo> |
| 438 |
As you are installing Gentoo without an internet connection, you cannot add |
| 439 |
any extra packages other than those shown in the installer. |

This screen allows you to choose various services to load at system boot. |
| 453 |
Study the available options and their descriptions carefully, and then select |
| 454 |
your desired services. For example, if you have chosen to install |
| 455 |
<c>xorg-x11</c> and wamt to boot straight into a graphical desktop, then you |
| 456 |
would select "xdm" from the list. |

First set the root password for the system administrator (the <e>root</e> |

user). |
| 488 |

| 489 |
|
| 490 |
<p> |
| 491 |
We <e>strongly</e> recommend that you create a regular user for daily work. |
| 492 |
Working as root all the time is <e>dangerous</e> and should be avoided! Create |
| 493 |
your users, add them to the appropriate groups, and set their passwords. You |
| 494 |
can optionally change their home directories, select their login shell, and |
| 495 |
set helpful comments. |

Please take the time to double-check each step of the installation process, |
| 510 |
ensuring that your system is properly configured. When you have finished |
| 511 |
reviewing, you may save your progress and exit, or click <c>Install</c> to begin |
| 512 |
automatically installing Gentoo. |
| 513 |
</p> |
| 514 |
|
| 515 |
<p> |
| 516 |
You are free to browse around on the LiveCD while the installation proceeds. |
| 517 |
The installer window will alert you when it has finished. At that point, can |
| 518 |
close the window by clicking the <c>x</c> in the top right corner. When you are |
| 519 |
ready, you may log out and reboot. Make sure you remove the LiveCD during the |
| 520 |
reboot. |
