I don't know what the devs' thinking on this has been, but it could be such options are not enabled by default because the network configuration can affect security. For a binary desktop distro, more generic options would be preconfigured, as I expect is the case with genkernel. > The only things I left out were the UEFI > thingy stuff. I so dread that UEFI thingy on the new build. o_O I think UEFI is rather simpler to set up, no "BIOS Boot Partition" required. Just create a partition with type ef00 (GUID type C12A7328-F81F-11D2- BA4B-00A0C93EC93B - EFI system partition) and format it as FAT32, before you mount it as /efi. The handbook details how to set up a UEFI system with ESP, so spend some time reading through the docs before you jump in and consider options and permutations if you will be using openrc or systemd. > Thanks to all. It running, apparently with IPv6 at that. O_O Consider your firewall settings to include IPv6, if IPv6 is enabled.
