Look at it from the new installer's point of view. He reads that stage 1 |
6 |
allows him to customise his Gentoo system (whether the one he's installing |
7 |
or the one he's installing with isn't made clear), and that stage 3 will |
8 |
make him put up with optimisations chosen by the distribution team. Now, I |
9 |
ask you, how is he to know that (for present purposes) it matters not one |
10 |
jot in the long run which stage he chooses, because recompilation of the |
11 |
entire system is recommended after installation? He's quite likely to finish |
12 |
the installation and then just go on to use it, oblivious of other |
13 |
possibilities. |

I suggest you read the long thread on emwrap that I pointed you to last |

time. Then tell me it's all rubbish and that your method is best. |
