We the willing, led by the unknowning, are doing the impossible, for the ungrateful. We have done so much, for so long, with so little. We are now qualified to do anything with nothing.

I have found the easiest way to build a rootfs for guest systems on Gentoo is to make a directory, unpack the stage1 system into the directory, copy over your resolv.conf, chroot into the directory and follow the initial Gentoo build sequence to get a basic system - without adding a kernel or bootloader, of course. When you have done, exit the chroot, tar up the directory from it's root level, then use dd and mkfs to make a rootfs filesystem. Mount your rootfs filesystem on loopback and untar the previous build directory onto it. Voila, a gentoo rootfs! I believe the current usermode docs at the gentoo.org website suggest something similar. Now, does anyone know of a simple way to make an FC3 rootfs?
