Keep a binpkg of all your installed packages in a backup, keep a backup |
| 16 |
of /var/lib/portage/world and /etc. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Now for reinstalling, just feed back the binpkg backup and make.conf |
| 19 |
backup (from etc) to portage, put the world file back in place, then |
| 20 |
reinstall. Should only take a few seconds now. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Then restore the rest of your configuration using the etc-backup. |
