How hard is to install Gentoo from a USB stick? Is it officially supported this
type of installation?
I can find instruction here and there; and some notes that is not an easy task.
The reason I'm asking is that I'm putting a new PC together and want to get rid of CD all together.

Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
I restarted bind (had to do a killall) and I had updated tools and it
still didn't work. It was my IP address that showed up on the site. But
today it started working and now says I'm safe although I hadn't
changed anything since. Don't know what the answer was but at least
it's ok now.
Cheers

The number of inodes can be specified at creation time with the "-N"
parameter. AFAIK it cannot be changed afterwards.
