I recall building a few systems in the early days of gentoo. The funny thing |
| 14 |
is that other than burning and booting Knoppix a couple of times I had no |
| 15 |
Linux knowledge or experience. However, the gentoo handbook held my hand step |
| 16 |
by step and all these years later I'm still here. So, if I could do it, I |
| 17 |
wouldn't really call it technically demanding. ;-) |

I guess the OP could use something like this, unless there's a better way |
| 20 |
documented somewhere else: |
