Hi, could anybody tell me how exactly to build a image from Gentoo stage 3
image, all I got from the internet is an tar.gz file and no image file in
it. If I don't have a image file to run M5 in FS mode first, how can I
compile the image ? Sorry for such silly question, but it confused me for
quite a long time. Thanks!
