That's exactly what I did with my laptop. It arrived at 1pm and I needed |

it fully functional for the next morning, so I did a Stage 3 install in a |
| 8 |

When I had time, I set ACCEPT_KEYWORDS to ~ppc, fiddled with my USE flags |
| 12 |
and did update -uavDN world, which recompiled just about everything, |

giving me the same as if I'd done stage 1 to start with, except I had a |
| 14 |
usable computer in far less time. |
