Im following the handbook, and I’m up to configuring the kernel. (In a vm. Skipping the optional installing firmware/microcode for now)
Trying for an OpenRC system, but it looks like all the steps need systemd.
All the videos I watched seems to skip this step and just go to Kernel configuration and compilation, but I dont want to a) mix old videos and up-to-date handbook, and b) blindly copy commands. I understood mostly everything untill now. Just this kernel step where I got lost the first time I tried to install gentoo.
Weather update: 3am. Finished my first install in a VM. Learnt so much. Like I can side boot it on a spare drive/partition on my main rig, without messing up my current install. (Another day though. Sleep important too)
