I *think* the correct way to do it is: * Make sure you don't have any kernel sources installed * importare virtual/linux-sources scm But possibly not, because old style virtuals are a mess. > -You mentioned that gentoo uses old style virtuals.

New style virtuals are simply empty normal packages, which are much nicer to deal with. Gentoo uses a mixture of both. > -If I were to create a new system from scratch using paludis as a > package manager, what snapshot and stage tarball should I start with? I'm not aware of any Gentoo-based stage tarballs containing Paludis. But you can install Paludis straight away anyway, so it doesn't really matter. -- Ciaran McCreesh
