Using Archlinux iso to make live USB driver more quickly.
And use live USB driver to install gentoo OS.
Prepare :
1. Download image
Mirro 1: Arch Linux Downloads - ISO
Mirro 2: Arch Linux Downloads - ISO
Download archlinux-2015.02.01-dual.iso
2. dd into usb flash
dd bs=4M if=/path/to/archlinux-2015.02.01-dual.iso of=/dev/sdx && sync
1. Design the partition of disk
Type: gdisk /dev/sda
Type: o //This will create a new empty GUID partition table and destroy all your data and overwrite existing partitions
Set /dev/sda1 as "EFI" system[Ref]
Hex code or GUID (L to show codes, Enter = 8300): EF00
Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type
/dev/sda1 * 2048 104447 102400 100M 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 104448 63019007 62914560 30G 83 Linux
/dev/sda3 79796224 167772159 87975936 42G 83 Linux
set /dev/sda1 as boot sectorExplain:
sda1 (/mnt/boot)
mkfs -t fat /dev/sda1
sda2 (/mnt/)
mkfs -t ext4 /dev/sda2
sda4 (/mnt/data)
mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sda4
mkdir /mnt/gentoo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/gentoo mkdir /mnt/gentoo/boot mkdir /mnt/gentoo/data mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/gentoo/boot mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/gentoo/data
Download package
Download stage & portage from https://www.gentoo.org/main/en/mirrors.xml
release :
releases/amd64/autobuilds/20151001/stage3-amd64-20151001.tar.bz2
portage :
snapshots/portage-latest.tar.bz2
Store hyperlink into file and execute following command will start to download file under command line. cat /tmp/stage3-amd64 | xargs wget
After download file
tar mxvf stage3-amd64-20150730.tar.bz2 -C /mnt/gentoo
tar mxvf portage-20150804.tar.xz -C /mnt/gentoo/usr/ (portage include all linux package)
Mount environment equipment
# mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc/
#
mount --rbind /dev/ /mnt/gentoo/dev/ (must use --rbind)
#
mount --rbind /sys/ /mnt/gentoo/sys/
Copy DNS query list
# cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/
Switch to /mnt/gentoo
# chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
Set env path
# source /etc/profile
Install Terminal multiplexer
# emerge app-misc/tmux
Kernel :
Get kernel source.
Must have kernel source in the OS. Otherwise can't compile other software.
# emerge sys-kernel/gentoo-sources
genkernel is a tool created by Gentoo used to automate the build process of the kernel and initramfs
# emerge genkernel (Gentoo automatic kernel building scripts)
Compile kerner for system (must install sys-kernel/gentoo-sources, otherwise can't work)
# genkernel all (i5 around 51 min)
Using genkernel can create initramfs under /boot.
# genkernel --install initramfs
Copy DNS query list
cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/
Create fstab into /mnt/
genfstab -U -p /mnt/gentoo >> /mnt/gentoo/etc/fstab
Switch to /mnt/gentoo
# chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
update enviroment
source /etc/profile (Load environment settings)
env-update (Collect all so file location into one file was called /etc/ld.so.cache)
Update localtime - Choose TimeZone area
cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Taipei /etc/localtime
echo "Asia/Taipei" >> /etc/timezone
Support different language
# nano -w /etc/locale.gen
Add Following string into the file.
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
zh_TW.UTF-8 UTF-8
zh_TW BIG5
Generate locales based language
# locale-gen
Install bzip2 at the first which was need by other software.
This package will decompress.
emerge bzip2
Install and configure a bootloader
gummiboot install (Sometime can't booting, do this command again)
For the moment, sys-boot/gummiboot is still in ~arch so needs to be added to the /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords first:
# mkdir -p /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords # echo "sys-boot/gummiboot" >> /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords/efi
Next, install the sys-boot/gummiboot package:
#
emerge --ask sys-boot/gummiboot
Create bootload into the folder of boot
# gummiboot --path /boot install
gummiboot will create following file.
EFI initramfs-genkernel-x86_64-4.4.6-gentoo kernel-genkernel-x86_64-4.4.6-gentoo loader System.map-genkernel-x86_64-4.4.6-gentoo
No need to type so much word.
# ls -al > /boot/loader/entries/gentoo.conf
nano /boot/loader/entries/gentoo.conf
title Gentoo Linux (Title name need the same)
initrd /initramfs-genkernel-x86_64-4.4.6-gentoo (Init image)
linux /kernel-genkernel-x86_64-4.4.6-gentoo (Kernel image)
options root=/dev/sdaX rw (X = root filesystem)
Please note options must have s, and X of sdaX must be changed.
Change root password
passwd root
Install Xorg-X11 (X server)

Installing X server
emerge -pv lightdm-gtk-greeter xorg-x11 (-pv simply display what would have been installed)### if want install lxde
### emerge lxde-meta # emerge lightdm-gtk-greeter xorg-x11(Install)
After install above package, then execute startx need following package.
# emerge twm xclock xterm
Install x server (Xorg-X11) and x client (cinnamon) at the same time.
# USE="icu pulseaudio gnome-keyring" emerge lightdm-gtk-greeter xorg-x11 twm xclock xterm cinnamon
