42 Log:
43 release time. note that since this is beta1, the release dir and stage/media names have been adjusted accordingly. also, the handbooks are marked with a disclaimer=draft, so once the final is out, that will be removed and the release names adjusted. in the mean time, these are live. the beta is officially released. no, it's not april fools, but it is april 1st. :)

744 -We'll take a good look at disk-oriented aspects of Gentoo Linux
745 -and Linux in general, including Linux filesystems, partitions and block devices.
746 -Then, once you're familiar with the ins and outs of disks and filesystems,
747 -you'll be guided through the process of setting up partitions and filesystems
748 -for your Gentoo Linux installation.
749 -</p>
750 -
751 -<p>
752 -To begin, we'll introduce <e>block devices</e>. The most famous block device is
753 -probably the one that represents the first SCSI HD in a Linux system, namely
754 -<path>/dev/sda</path>.
755 -</p>
756 -

758 -The block devices above represent an abstract interface to the disk. User
759 -programs can use these block devices to interact with your disk without worrying
760 -about whether your drives are IDE, SCSI or something else. The program can
761 -simply address the storage on the disk as a bunch of contiguous,
762 -randomly-accessible 512-byte blocks.

778 -<title>Filesystems?</title>
779 -<body>
780 -
781 -<p>
782 -Several filesystems are available. Most of them are found stable on the
783 -Alpha architecture.
784 -</p>
785 -
786 -<note>
787 -<c>aboot</c> only supports booting from <b>ext2</b> and <b>ext3</b>
788 -partitions.
789 -</note>
790 -
791 -<p>
792 -<b>ext2</b> is the tried and true Linux filesystem but doesn't have metadata
793 -journaling, which means that routine ext2 filesystem checks at startup time can
794 -be quite time-consuming. There is now quite a selection of newer-generation
795 -journaled filesystems that can be checked for consistency very quickly and are
796 -thus generally preferred over their non-journaled counterparts. Journaled
797 -filesystems prevent long delays when you boot your system and your filesystem
798 -happens to be in an inconsistent state.
799 -</p>
800 -
801 -<p>
802 -<b>ext3</b> is the journaled version of the ext2 filesystem, providing metadata
803 -journaling for fast recovery in addition to other enhanced journaling modes like
804 -full data and ordered data journaling. It uses an HTree index that enables high
805 -performance in almost all situations. In short, ext3 is a very good and reliable
806 -filesystem.
807 -</p>
808 -
809 -<p>
810 -<b>ReiserFS</b> is a B+tree-based filesystem that has very good overall
811 -performance and greatly outperforms both ext2 and ext3 when dealing with small
812 -files (files less than 4k), often by a factor of 10x-15x. ReiserFS also scales
813 -extremely well and has metadata journaling. ReiserFS is solid and usable as
814 -both general-purpose filesystem and for extreme cases such as the creation of
815 -large filesystems, very large files and directories containing tens of
816 -thousands of small files.
817 -</p>
818 -
819 -<p>
820 -<b>XFS</b> is a filesystem with metadata journaling which comes with a robust
821 -feature-set and is optimized for scalability. We only recommend using this
822 -filesystem on Linux systems with high-end SCSI and/or fibre channel storage and
823 -an uninterruptible power supply. Because XFS aggressively caches in-transit data
824 -in RAM, improperly designed programs (those that don't take proper precautions
825 -when writing files to disk and there are quite a few of them) can lose a good
826 -deal of data if the system goes down unexpectedly.
827 -</p>
828 -
829 -<p>
830 -<b>JFS</b> is IBM's high-performance journaling filesystem. It has recently
831 -become production-ready and there hasn't been a sufficient track record to
832 -comment positively nor negatively on its general stability at this point.

1114 -We'll take a good look at disk-oriented aspects of Gentoo Linux
1115 -and Linux in general, including Linux filesystems, partitions and block devices.
1116 -Then, once you're familiar with the ins and outs of disks and filesystems,
1117 -you'll be guided through the process of setting up partitions and filesystems
1118 -for your Gentoo Linux installation.
1119 -</p>
1120
1121 -<p>
1122 -To begin, we'll introduce <e>block devices</e>. The most famous block device is
1123 -probably the one that represents the first IDE drive in a Linux system, namely
1124 -<path>/dev/hda</path>. If your system uses SCSI or SATA drives, then your
1125 -first hard drive would be <path>/dev/sda</path>.
1126 -</p>
1127 -
1128 -<p>
1129 -The block devices above represent an abstract interface to the disk. User
1130 -programs can use these block devices to interact with your disk without worrying
1131 -about whether your drives are IDE, SCSI or something else. The program can
1132 -simply address the storage on the disk as a bunch of contiguous,
1133 -randomly-accessible 512-byte blocks.

1149 -<title>Filesystems?</title>
1150 -<body>
1151 -
1152 -<p>
1153 -Several filesystems are available. Some of them are found stable on the arm
1154 -architecture, others aren't. The following filesystems are found to be stable:
1155 -ext2 and ext3. jfs and reiserfs may work but need more testing. If you're
1156 -really adventurous you can try the unsupported filesystems.
1157 -</p>
1158
1159 -<p>
1160 -<b>ext2</b> is the tried and true Linux filesystem but doesn't have metadata
1161 -journaling, which means that routine ext2 filesystem checks at startup time can
1162 -be quite time-consuming. There is now quite a selection of newer-generation
1163 -journaled filesystems that can be checked for consistency very quickly and are
1164 -thus generally preferred over their non-journaled counterparts. Journaled
1165 -filesystems prevent long delays when you boot your system and your filesystem
1166 -happens to be in an inconsistent state.
1167 -</p>
1168 -
1169 -<p>
1170 -<b>ext3</b> is the journaled version of the ext2 filesystem, providing metadata
1171 -journaling for fast recovery in addition to other enhanced journaling modes like
1172 -full data and ordered data journaling. It uses an HTree index that enables high
1173 -performance in almost all situations. In short, ext3 is a very good and reliable
1174 -filesystem.
1175 -</p>
1176 -
1177 -<p>
1178 -<b>ReiserFS</b> is a B+tree-based filesystem that has very good overall
1179 -performance and greatly outperforms both ext2 and ext3 when dealing with small
1180 -files (files less than 4k), often by a factor of 10x-15x. ReiserFS also scales
1181 -extremely well and has metadata journaling. ReiserFS is solid and usable as
1182 -both general-purpose filesystem and for extreme cases such as the creation of
1183 -large filesystems, very large files and directories containing tens of
1184 -thousands of small files.
1185 -</p>
1186 -
1187 -<p>
1188 -<b>XFS</b> is a filesystem with metadata journaling which comes with a robust
1189 -feature-set and is optimized for scalability. We only recommend using this
1190 -filesystem on Linux systems with high-end SCSI and/or fibre channel storage and
1191 -an uninterruptible power supply. Because XFS aggressively caches in-transit data
1192 -in RAM, improperly designed programs (those that don't take proper precautions
1193 -when writing files to disk and there are quite a few of them) can lose a good
1194 -deal of data if the system goes down unexpectedly.
1195 -</p>
1196 -
1197 -<p>
1198 -<b>JFS</b> is IBM's high-performance journaling filesystem. It has recently
1199 -become production-ready and there hasn't been a sufficient track record to
1200 -comment positively nor negatively on its general stability at this point.

1565 -<title>Filesystems?</title>
1566 -<body>
1567 -
1568 -<p>
1569 -Several filesystems are available. Ext2, ext3, XFS and reiserfs are found
1570 -stable on the HPPA architecture. The others are very experimental.
1571 -</p>
1572
1573 -<p>
1574 -<b>ext2</b> is the tried and true Linux filesystem but doesn't have metadata
1575 -journaling, which means that routine ext2 filesystem checks at startup time can
1576 -be quite time-consuming. There is now quite a selection of newer-generation
1577 -journaled filesystems that can be checked for consistency very quickly and are
1578 -thus generally preferred over their non-journaled counterparts. Journaled
1579 -filesystems prevent long delays when you boot your system and your filesystem
1580 -happens to be in an inconsistent state.
1581 -</p>
1582 -
1583 -<p>
1584 -<b>ext3</b> is the journaled version of the ext2 filesystem, providing metadata
1585 -journaling for fast recovery in addition to other enhanced journaling modes like
1586 -full data and ordered data journaling. It uses an HTree index that enables high
1587 -performance in almost all situations. In short, ext3 is a very good and reliable
1588 -filesystem.
1589 -</p>
1590 -
1591 -<p>
1592 -<b>ReiserFS</b> is a B+tree-based filesystem that has very good overall
1593 -performance and greatly outperforms both ext2 and ext3 when dealing with small
1594 -files (files less than 4k), often by a factor of 10x-15x. ReiserFS also scales
1595 -extremely well and has metadata journaling. ReiserFS is solid and usable as
1596 -both general-purpose filesystem and for extreme cases such as the creation of
1597 -large filesystems, very large files and directories containing tens of
1598 -thousands of small files.
1599 -</p>
1600 -
1601 -<p>
1602 -<b>XFS</b> is a filesystem with metadata journaling which comes with a robust
1603 -feature-set and is optimized for scalability. We only recommend using this
1604 -filesystem on Linux systems with high-end SCSI and/or fibre channel storage and
1605 -an uninterruptible power supply. Because XFS aggressively caches in-transit data
1606 -in RAM, improperly designed programs (those that don't take proper precautions
1607 -when writing files to disk and there are quite a few of them) can lose a good
1608 -deal of data if the system goes down unexpectedly.
1609 -</p>
1610 -
1611 -<p>
1612 -<b>JFS</b> is IBM's high-performance journaling filesystem. It has recently
1613 -become production-ready and there hasn't been a sufficient track record to
1614 -comment positively nor negatively on its general stability at this point.

1927 -<body>
1928 -
1929 -<p>
1930 -The Linux kernel supports various filesystems. We'll explain vfat, ext2, ext3,
1931 -ReiserFS, XFS and JFS as these are the most commonly used filesystems on Linux
1932 -systems.
1933 -</p>
1934 -
1935 -<p>
1936 -<b>vfat</b> is the MS-DOS filesystem, updated to allow long filenames. It is
1937 -also the only filesystem type that the EFI firmware on ia64 systems understand.
1938 -The boot partition on ia64 systems should always be vfat, but for your data
1939 -partitions you should use one of the other filesystems listed below.
1940 -</p>
1941 -
1942 -<p>
1943 -<b>ext2</b> is the tried and true Linux filesystem but doesn't have metadata
1944 -journaling, which means that routine ext2 filesystem checks at startup time can
1945 -be quite time-consuming. There is now quite a selection of newer-generation
1946 -journaled filesystems that can be checked for consistency very quickly and are
1947 -thus generally preferred over their non-journaled counterparts. Journaled
1948 -filesystems prevent long delays when you boot your system and your filesystem
1949 -happens to be in an inconsistent state.
1950 -</p>
1951 -
1952 -<p>
1953 -<b>ext3</b> is the journaled version of the ext2 filesystem, providing metadata
1954 -journaling for fast recovery in addition to other enhanced journaling modes like
1955 -full data and ordered data journaling. It uses an HTree index that enables high
1956 -performance in almost all situations. In short, ext3 is a very good and reliable
1957 -filesystem.
1958 -</p>
1959 -
1960 -<p>
1961 -<b>ReiserFS</b> is a B+tree-based filesystem that has very good overall
1962 -performance and greatly outperforms both ext2 and ext3 when dealing with small
1963 -files (files less than 4k), often by a factor of 10x-15x. ReiserFS also scales
1964 -extremely well and has metadata journaling. ReiserFS is solid and usable as
1965 -both general-purpose filesystem and for extreme cases such as the creation of
1966 -large filesystems, very large files and directories containing tens of
1967 -thousands of small files.
1968 -</p>
1969 -
1970 -<p>
1971 -<b>XFS</b> is a filesystem with metadata journaling which comes with a robust
1972 -feature-set and is optimized for scalability. We only recommend using this
1973 -filesystem on Linux systems with high-end SCSI and/or fibre channel storage and
1974 -an uninterruptible power supply. Because XFS aggressively caches in-transit data
1975 -in RAM, improperly designed programs (those that don't take proper precautions
1976 -when writing files to disk and there are quite a few of them) can lose a good
1977 -deal of data if the system goes down unexpectedly.
1978 -</p>
1979 -
1980 -<p>
1981 -<b>JFS</b> is IBM's high-performance journaling filesystem. It has recently
1982 -become production-ready and there hasn't been a sufficient track record to
1983 -comment positively nor negatively on its general stability at this point.

2668 -We'll start by taking a good look at disk-oriented aspects of Gentoo Linux
2669 -and Linux in general, including Linux filesystems, partitions and block devices.
2670 -Then, once you're familiar with the ins and outs of disks and filesystems,
2671 -you'll be guided through the process of setting up partitions and filesystems
2672 -for your Gentoo Linux installation.

2676 -To begin, we'll introduce <e>block devices</e>. The most common block device is
2677 -the one that represents the first IDE drive in a Linux system, namely
2678 -<path>/dev/hda</path>. If you are installing onto SCSI, FireWire, USB or SATA
2679 -drives, then your first hard drive would be <path>/dev/sda</path>. Additional
2680 -drives are enumerated by the next letter in the alphabet. As an example, the
2681 -third IDE disk could be found at <path>/dev/hdc</path>.
2682 -</p>
2683 -
2684 -<p>
2685 -The block devices above represent an abstract interface to the disk. User
2686 -programs can use these block devices to interact with the disk without worrying
2687 -about whether the drives are IDE, SCSI or something else. The program can
2688 -simply address the storage on the disk as a bunch of contiguous,
2689 -randomly-accessible 512-byte blocks.

3402 -We'll take a good look at some of the disk-oriented aspects of Gentoo Linux
3403 -and Linux in general, including Linux filesystems, partitions, and block
3404 -devices. Then, once you're familiar with the ins and outs of disks and
3405 -filesystems, you'll be guided through the process of setting up partitions
3406 -and filesystems for your Gentoo Linux installation.
3407 -</p>
3408 -
3409 -<p>
3410 -To begin, we introduce <e>block devices</e>. The most typical block device is
3411 -probably the one that represents the first SCSI hard disk in a Linux system,
3412 -namely <path>/dev/sda</path>.
3413 -</p>
3414
3415 -<p>
3416 -Block devices represent an abstract interface to the disk. User programs can
3417 -use these block devices to interact with your disk without worrying about
3418 -whether your drives are IDE, SCSI, or something else. The program can simply
3419 -address the storage on the disk as a bunch of contiguous, randomly-accessible
3420 -512-byte blocks.
3421 -</p>
3422 -
3423 -<p>
3424 -Block devices show up as entries in <path>/dev/</path>. Typically, the first
3425 -SCSI drive is named <path>/dev/sda</path>, the second <path>/dev/sdb</path>,
3426 -and so on. IDE drives are named similarly, however, they are prefixed by hd-
3427 -instead of sd-. If you are using IDE drives, the first one will be named
3428 -<path>/dev/hda</path>, the second <path>/dev/hdb</path>, and so on.

3448 -Several filesystems are available, some are known to be stable on the
3449 -SPARC architecture. Ext2 and ext3, for example, are known to work well.
3450 -Alternate filesystems may not function correctly.
3451 -</p>
3452
3453 -<p>
3454 -<b>ext2</b> is the tried-and-true Linux filesystem. It does not support
3455 -journaling, which means that periodic checks of ext2 filesystems at startup
3456 -can be quite time-consuming. There is quite a selection of newer-generation
3457 -journaled filesystems that can be checked for consistency very quickly at
3458 -startup, and are therefore generally preferred over their non-journaled
3459 -counterparts. In general, journaled filesystems prevent long delays when a
3460 -system is booted and the filesystem is in an inconsistent state.
3461 -</p>
3462 -
3463 -<p>
3464 -<b>ext3</b> is the journaled version of the ext2 filesystem, providing metadata
3465 -journaling for fast recovery in addition to other enhanced journaling modes like
3466 -full data and ordered data journaling. It uses an HTree index that enables high
3467 -performance in almost all situations. In short, ext3 is a very good and reliable
3468 -filesystem.

4047 -We'll take a good look at disk-oriented aspects of Gentoo Linux
4048 -and Linux in general, including Linux filesystems, partitions and block devices.
4049 -Then, once you're familiar with the ins and outs of disks and filesystems,
4050 -you'll be guided through the process of setting up partitions and filesystems
4051 -for your Gentoo Linux installation.
4052 -</p>
4053
4054 -<p>
4055 -To begin, we'll introduce <e>block devices</e>. The most famous block device is
4056 -probably the one that represents the first IDE drive in a Linux system, namely
4057 -<path>/dev/hda</path>. If your system uses SCSI or SATA drives, then your
4058 -first hard drive would be <path>/dev/sda</path>.

4062 -The block devices above represent an abstract interface to the disk. User
4063 -programs can use these block devices to interact with your disk without worrying
4064 -about whether your drives are IDE, SCSI or something else. The program can
4065 -simply address the storage on the disk as a bunch of contiguous,
4066 -randomly-accessible 512-byte blocks.

4084 -
4085 -<p test="func:keyval('arch')='x86'">
4086 -The Linux kernel supports various filesystems. We'll explain ext2, ext3,
4087 -ReiserFS, XFS and JFS as these are the most commonly used filesystems on Linux
4088 -systems.
4089 -</p>
4090 -
4091 -<p test="func:keyval('arch')='AMD64'">
4092 -Several filesystems are available. Some of them are found stable on the amd64
4093 -architecture, others aren't. The following filesystems are found to be stable:
4094 -ext2 and ext3. jfs and reiserfs may work but need more testing. If you're
4095 -really adventurous you can try the unsupported filesystems.
4096 -</p>
4097 -
4098 -<p>
4099 -<b>ext2</b> is the tried and true Linux filesystem but doesn't have metadata
4100 -journaling, which means that routine ext2 filesystem checks at startup time can
4101 -be quite time-consuming. There is now quite a selection of newer-generation
4102 -journaled filesystems that can be checked for consistency very quickly and are
4103 -thus generally preferred over their non-journaled counterparts. Journaled
4104 -filesystems prevent long delays when you boot your system and your filesystem
4105 -happens to be in an inconsistent state.
4106 -</p>
4107 -
4108 -<p>
4109 -<b>ext3</b> is the journaled version of the ext2 filesystem, providing metadata
4110 -journaling for fast recovery in addition to other enhanced journaling modes like
4111 -full data and ordered data journaling. It uses an HTree index that enables high
4112 -performance in almost all situations. In short, ext3 is a very good and reliable
4113 -filesystem.
4114 -</p>
4115 -
4116 -<p>
4117 -<b>ReiserFS</b> is a B+tree-based filesystem that has very good overall
4118 -performance and greatly outperforms both ext2 and ext3 when dealing with small
4119 -files (files less than 4k), often by a factor of 10x-15x. ReiserFS also scales
4120 -extremely well and has metadata journaling. ReiserFS is solid and usable as
4121 -both general-purpose filesystem and for extreme cases such as the creation of
4122 -large filesystems, very large files and directories containing tens of
4123 -thousands of small files.
4124 -</p>
4125
4126 -<p>
4127 -<b>XFS</b> is a filesystem with metadata journaling which comes with a robust
4128 -feature-set and is optimized for scalability. We only recommend using this
4129 -filesystem on Linux systems with high-end SCSI and/or fibre channel storage and
4130 -an uninterruptible power supply. Because XFS aggressively caches in-transit data
4131 -in RAM, improperly designed programs (those that don't take proper precautions
4132 -when writing files to disk and there are quite a few of them) can lose a good
4133 -deal of data if the system goes down unexpectedly.
4134 -</p>
4135 -
4136 -<p>
4137 -<b>JFS</b> is IBM's high-performance journaling filesystem. It has recently
4138 -become production-ready and there hasn't been a sufficient track record to
4139 -comment positively nor negatively on its general stability at this point.

4362 +acpi=on This loads support for ACPI and also causes the acpid daemon to
4363 + be started by the CD on boot. This is only needed if your
4364 + system requires ACPI to function properly. This is not
4365 + required for Hyperthreading support.
4366 +
4367 +acpi=off Completely disables ACPI. This is useful on some older systems
4368 + and is also a requirement for using APM. This will disable any
4369 + Hyperthreading support of your processor.
4370 +
4371 +console=X This sets up serial console access for the CD. The first
4372 + option is the device, usually ttyS0 on x86, followed by any
4373 + connection options, which are comma separated. The default
4374 + options are 9600,8,n,1.
4375 +
4376 +dmraid=X This allows for passing options to the device-mapper RAID
4377 + subsystem. Options should be encapsulated in quotes.
4378 +doapm This loads APM driver support. This requires you to also use
4379 + acpi=off.
4380 +
4381 +dopcmcia This loads support for PCMCIA and Cardbus hardware and also
4382 + causes the pcmcia cardmgr to be started by the CD on boot.
4383 + This is only required when booting from PCMCIA/Cardbus devices.
4384 +
4385 +doscsi This loads support for most SCSI controllers. This is also a
4386 + requirement for booting most USB devices, as they use the SCSI
4387 + subsystem of the kernel.
4388 +
4389 +hda=stroke This allows you to partition the whole hard disk even when your
4390 + BIOS is unable to handle large disks. This option is only used
4391 + on machines with an older BIOS. Replace hda with the device
4392 + that is requiring this option.
4393 +
4394 +ide=nodma This forces the disabling of DMA in the kernel and is required
4395 + by some IDE chipsets and also by some CDROM drives. If your
4396 + system is having trouble reading from your IDE CDROM, try this
4397 + option. This also disables the default hdparm settings from
4398 + being executed.
4399 +
4400 +noapic This disables the Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller
4401 + that is present on newer motherboards. It has been known to
4402 + cause some problems on older hardware.
4403 +
4404 +nodetect This disables all of the autodetection done by the CD,
4405 + including device autodetection and DHCP probing. This is
4406 + useful for doing debugging of a failing CD or driver.
4407 +
4408 +nodhcp This disables DHCP probing on detected network cards. This is
4409 + useful on networks with only static addresses.
4410 +
4411 +nodmraid Disables support for device-mapper RAID, such as that used for
4412 + on-board IDE/SATA RAID controllers.
4413 +
4414 +nofirewire This disables the loading of Firewire modules. This should
4415 + only be necessary if your Firewire hardware is causing
4416 + a problem with booting the CD.
4417 +
4418 +nogpm This diables gpm console mouse support.
4419 +
4420 +nohotplug This disables the loading of the hotplug and coldplug init
4421 + scripts at boot. This is useful for doing debugging of a
4422 + failing CD or driver.
4423 +
4424 +nokeymap This disables the keymap selection used to select non-US
4425 + keyboard layouts.
4426 +
4427 +nolapic This disables the local APIC on Uniprocessor kernels.
4428 +
4429 +nosata This disables the loading of Serial ATA modules. This is used
4430 + if your system is having problems with the SATA subsystem.
4431 +
4432 +nosmp This disables SMP, or Symmetric Multiprocessing, on SMP-enabled
4433 + kernels. This is useful for debugging SMP-related issues with
4434 + certain drivers and motherboards.
4435 +
4436 +nosound This disables sound support and volume setting. This is useful
4437 + for systems where sound support causes problems.
4438 +
4439 +nousb This disables the autoloading of USB modules. This is useful
4440 + for debugging USB issues.
4441 +
4442 +slowusb This adds some extra pauses into the boot process for slow
4443 + USB CDROMs, like in the IBM BladeCenter.
4444 +
4445 +<comment>Volume/Device Management:</comment>
4446 +
4447 +doevms This enables support for IBM's pluggable EVMS, or Enterprise
4448 + Volume Management System. This is not safe to use with lvm.
4449 +
4450 +dolvm This enables support for Linux's Logical Volume Management.
4451 + This is not safe to use with evms.
4452 +
4453 +<comment>Other options:</comment>
4454 +
4455 +debug Enables debugging code. This might get messy, as it displays
4456 + a lot of data to the screen.
4457 +
4458 +docache This caches the entire runtime portion of the CD into RAM,
4459 + which allows you to umount /mnt/cdrom and mount another CDROM.
4460 + This option requires that you have at least twice as much
4461 + available RAM as the size of the CD.
4462 +
4463 +doload=X This causes the initial ramdisk to load any module listed, as
4464 + well as dependencies. Replace X with the module name.
4465 +
4466 + Multiple modules can be specified by a comma-separated list.
4467 +
4468 +dosshd Starts sshd on boot, which is useful for unattended installs.
4469 +
4470 +passwd=foo Sets whatever follows the equals as the root password, which
4471 + is required for dosshd since we scramble the root password.
4472 +
4473 +noload=X This causes the initial ramdisk to skip the loading of a
4474 + specific module that may be causing a problem. Syntax matches
4475 + that of doload.
4476 +
4477 +nonfs Disables the starting of portmap/nfsmount on boot.
4478 +
4479 +nox This causes an X-enabled LiveCD to not automatically start X,
4480 + but rather, to drop to the command line instead.
4481 +
4482 +scandelay This causes the CD to pause for 10 seconds during certain
4483 + portions the boot process to allow for devices that are slow to
4484 + initialize to be ready for use.
4485 +
4486 +scandelay=X This allows you to specify a given delay, in seconds, to be
4487 + added to certain portions of the boot process to allow for
4488 + devices that are slow to initialize to be ready for use.
4489 + Replace X with the number of seconds to pause.
4490 </pre>
4491
4492 +<note>
4493 +The CD will check for "no*" options before "do*" options, so that you can
4494 +override any option in the exact order you specify.
4495 +</note>
4496 +
4497 <p>
4498 Now boot your CD, select a kernel (if you are not happy with the default
4499 <c>gentoo</c> kernel) and boot options. As an example, we show you how
