Hi, Every once in a blue moon I screw up something. I don't know why I am telling you this. I come here mostly for help. LOL So you already now that. I have buildpkg set in make.conf. It does tend to consume some space though. What is say the top ten or twelve programs that would be good to have in case of a rescue? I would assume portage, gcc and python would be pretty important. I plan to delete the rest for space.
Since I figure some of you have more experience, I thought I would ask you folks. What is really needed to rescue from a serious borking of a Gentoo install? Also, what commands would a person have to use to make use of those buildpkg's? So far, I have not needed one. < says prayer > That assumes portage is what is screwed up to begin with.
