It sure makes sense ! You mean a web page with options per choise pointing to a section when that choise is made (consolidate existing install installs) example : Select the arch do you want to install gentoo on : [X]x86 []arm []x86_64 - --> go to url of handbook for x86 Select a iso: [X]base []full - --> go to url where mirrors can be selected for x86 and an explenation how to write the iso You selected x86-base-iso. Select which stage you want to start the installation : []stage1 []stage2 [X]stage3 - --> go to url of handbook for stage3_install etc etc .. That way you have en entire tree of diffirent ways to install but not the clutter of the other options because every select you do excludes sections of unneeded other install_documents. Kind of preventing the cluttering by _choise_. Maybe it's a daft implementation of your proposal ?
