Hypothetically (I haven't tried it.) |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
1) scp a:/etc/make.conf b:/etc/make.conf |
| 16 |
2) modify the CFLAGS in b:/etc/make.conf to suit, but leave the USE |
| 17 |
unchanged. |
| 18 |
3) do a basic install on b, you'll want to make sure it can boot into |
| 19 |
a kernel before you do the next step. |
| 20 |
4) scp a:/var/lib/portage/world b:/tmp/welcome_to_my_world.lst |
| 21 |
5) emerge `cat /tmp/welcome_to_my_world.lst` |
| 22 |

Have a nice day. |
