6 Not tested: Boot a Gentoo LiveCD, create a coreutils binary package with
7 quickpkg, mount your root fs, set ROOT environment variable to that
8 mount point, install the binary package into your system.

10 If the last step fails, you could also just unpack the package with tar,
11 but that wouldn't give you any package information.

13 BTW, what does the name _core_ utils tell you? *SCNR*
