If that were truly the case, then we should just rm -rf the Handbook. After all, any "real geek" will know how to install a Gentoo system without needing it, right? While the install method does tend to keep some people whom might be problematic from using Gentoo, that is not the intention. The intention is to give as much choice to the user, while still helping them through the painful installation process. The install method is also in place simply because nobody had taken the time to code an installer, which is being rectified as we speak. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead/QA Manager Games - Developer Gentoo Linux
