I installed Gentoo on two remote machines using ssh, because I didn't want
to freeze to death in the server room. Also the noise pollution there is
tremendous, because of all the fans and the SCSI hdds. So I decided to
perform the actual installation process from somewhere else. And it worked
perfectly! I just booted both machines using the gentoo live cd, and started
the ssh servers.
You can do just about anything via ssh. Plus, you don't have to sit there
and wait while the system is compiling or downloading, since you can just
minimize the console window and keep on working/surfing/playing.
Is this like what you want to do?

Hi list,
i would like to know if anyone have had experiences in installing
gentoo on a remote machine using ssh. Is it possible?
I'm not quite sure what you mean with that.
I installed Gentoo on my server. To do so, I first booted a
rescue system which was loaded over a netboot. After the
boot, I logged into the server using SSH and followed the
documentation.
Does that answer your question?
