Hi,

there is gentoo-kernel and gentoo-kernel-bin now. Ready to use 
distribution kernels. No messing with configs and stuff. With the right 
use flags you get automatic initramfs, installation and intergation in 
your bootmanager.

Regards,
Norman

      <div>I would love using Gentoo as Desktop and Server OS. I used

      <div>Does exist a way... where you could emerge world, update all
