I always wanted to create notes for Gentoo setup with the least amount of optional steps. And see how fast you can install it. However I am not ditching any useful tools or setup steps. The idea is that you get a fully usable system at the end
plain install based on stable systemd merged-usr profile using xfs file system and default layout from handbook with systemd-boot
- Use default layout
- Use xfs
- Install networking stack (NetworkManager)
- Use systemd-boot
- Make it boot :-)
