15 You can use a hardened stage 3 instead of a normal stage 3, without
16 having to install a normal stage 3 first.
17
18 For the profile, see:
19
20 /usr/portage/profiles/hardened/x86
21
22 there are all settings which are used by this profile. Basically, default flags, some virtuals, etc.
23
24
25 basically you get "berkdb crypt dlloader hardened nls pam pic pie
26 readline ssl tcpd zlib userlocales" flags, a few hardened-masked
27 packages maybe, and other things aren't really related to RSBAC. Beware,
28 hardened default profile is 2.4 and so you will have a RSBAC 2.4 kernel
29 You must link to
30
31 /usr/portage/profiles/hardened/x86/2.6 to use a 2.6 kernel
32
33 . If you use 2005.0 default profile, RSBAC will be a 2.6 kernel.
34
35 You can use either the hardened profile (see hardened Faq for help
36 switching to this profile), either the use keywords you mentionned with
37 RSBAC.
38
39 Good luck!
