Okay, I should have known this, but there really isn’t a choice for a networkless install of gentoo. The instructions will get you up to compiling the kernel and a bash script, but that’s it. I can’t get anything alsa to emerge, except for the things included in the kernel. icewm and rox won’t emerge, but Gnome will from the package CD (but not from the portage tree and source I copied on the machine).

ARGH!

There is no networkless install on gentoo. So, let me see if I can get the pcmia card to work… I’ll let you know more on Friday when Shane and I try to get our protoype to work.

Maybe I’m down to LFS…
