I did not find out the document of gentoo-embedded. I'd like to customize my system. from desktop to embedded device. I think most small devices would not support a big disk now. So I just wanna install some packages I need. And update them on my demand. So I think portage is a good way if it already meet my requirement. > -- > Chris Gianelloni > Release Engineering - Strategic Lead > x86 Architecture Team > Games - Developer > Gentoo Linux > > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) > > iD8DBQBDU54NkT4lNIS36YERAqCTAKCSjKBUR8iTfgpkUQCNjmcalB/0tACfQKxv > nLt0SlrydYQOyxxeQId3h5A= > =lD+Q > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > > > -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
