It was very easy for me. The first I came in tough with Gentoo was with |
| 21 |
the 2007 DVD. I booted, double clicked the installer icon, clicked |
| 22 |
"next" a few times with checking some tickboxes too, and then emerged -e |
| 23 |
system and world and the packages I need. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
After that I was asking myself where the difficulty lies many people |
| 26 |
refer to when it comes to installing Gentoo. |

Seriously, I didn't learn anything. Maybe CLFAGS and USE flags. |
