MY GENTOO INSTALL GUIDE

v0.0.1: Initial
v0.0.2: Switched from systemd to OpenRC

---------- BEGIN GENTOO INSTALL GUIDE ----------

Handbook: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64
Partition, btrfs.
Stage file: stage3 [systemd] on download page
chroot in
To add to make.conf:
```
# thanks to cat-from-plan9
USE="X dist-kernel xft pulseaudio networkmanager pipewire dbus systemd -bluetooth -telemetry -proprietary-codecs"
GRUB_PLATFORMS="pc efi-32 efi-64 multiboot"
ABI_X86="32 64"
CLEAN_DELAY=0
VIDEO_CARDS="amdgpu radeonsi"
```
/etc/portage/package.use/00video_cards can be `*/* VIDEO_CARDS: amdgpu radeonsi`, same value as in Make.conf

If you get IMPORTANT: config file '/etc/portage/package.use/00video_cards' needs updating.
then run `dispatch-conf` but press `z` to "zap" it.

Install sys-apps/linux-firmware!!!

FILE /etc/portage/package.use/installkernel:
`sys-kernel/installkernel grub`
emerge --ask sys-kernel/installkernel
Then, set up dracut. add `dracut`, so the file would be `sys-kernel/installkernel grub dracut`. Configure dracut. `emerge --ask sys-kernel/installkernel` again.
^ See https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Kernel#Initramfs

USE sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel USE DISTROBUTION KERNEL!!
This part will take pretty long.
Now you can `emerge --ask @module-rebuild`

DO NOT INSTALL sys-kernel/gentoo-sources

Setup fstab. Separate /home partition. Take a look at my debian fstab:
```
# / was on /dev/nvme1n1p2 during installation
UUID=e344e9e2-0964-4bdd-b06a-3bb2dae792d8 /               btrfs   defaults,subvol=@rootfs 0       0
# /boot/efi was on /dev/nvme1n1p1 during installation
UUID=8DB0-7A16  /boot/efi       vfat    umask=0077      0       1
/dev/sr0        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
# /home
UUID=99238ed0-5bd7-4691-b5ae-f7228c44badf /home btrfs defaults,subvol=@home 0 0
```
Use example from full UEFI config <https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/System#UEFI_systems> (why does this not use an automatic tool???)

Set hostname: `echo gentoo > /etc/hostname`

Set up network manager. See https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/System#NetworkManger_.28any_init_system.29
Set up /etc/hosts.txt in addition! <https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/System#The_hosts_file>

Now you can do https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/System#OpenRC
BASH completion! DO THIS NOW https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Tools#Optional:_Shell_completion
Also this as well!!! https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Tools#Suggested:_Time_synchronization for TIME
Do btrfs progs https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Tools#Filesystem_tools

ALMOST done!

Set up grub fully.
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Bootloader#Default:_GRUB

This last step (Finalizing) is really easy. The article sums it up perfectly anyway.

---------- BEGIN NOTES ----------
sudo apt update in Gentoo is this:
sudo emaint sync

upgrade in Gentoo is this:
sudo emerge -avuDU @world

upgrade in Gentoo (new USE config) is this:
sudo emerge -avuDN @world

sudo apt install in Gentoo is this:
sudo emerge -av

sudo apt autoremove in Gentoo is this:
sudo emerge -av --depclean

todo: get sirikali, maybe others?
