Not really. The process is the same. Most of that webpage is just a |

disclaimer that if you're having trouble with some odd livecd you may |
| 8 |
or may not get help. |

About the only commands you need on the livecd are those needed to |
| 11 |
partition, create the filesystem, and chroot. So a super-minimal one |
| 12 |
would not be ideal, but if you don't know what mkfs is you might not |
| 13 |
want to use Gentoo as your first distro. :) |

A lot of the more involved stuff on that page is for things like |
| 16 |
PXE-based install or other exotic configs. Yes, if you want to flash |
| 17 |
your system with coreboot and then directly boot an iso hosted on a |
| 18 |
website behind a VPN then there will be more steps than if you want to |
| 19 |
just boot off of a USB stick like normal mortals. |
