HOW? It takes so much fucking time, wiki is arcane AND I couldn't get runit to work. This was in a VM though. I am too lazy to actually move all my shit to a new distro. Teach me your ways.

bro, just install the binaries if you are getting stuck. I think there are a few places where you need to read between the lines if following the handbook for a custom kernel compile.

I got it on my second try on bare metal, only complicated by poor linux drivers for my AMD igpu which caused crashes until I disabled it

don't mind him and just install cachyos

>>105611655
I might give it a shot on bare metal this summer but for now I need my pc for uni.

Why CachyOS? I want to try Gentoo because of the experience and the minimalist aspect of it. How is CachyOS different than any other distro?

if i install gentoo how likely will my computer become a node for a "residential ip" vpn farm without me knowing or wanting it?

>>105611084 (OP)
why?

>>105612358
significantly less likely than installing windows or ubuntu

arch btw

>>105611084 (OP)
damn right

>>105612119
it's based on arch but optimized for performance. it will easily match (or outperform) any gentoo system and will be 1000x faster to set up. and don't get hung up on minimalism, this is not a 100GB windows installation, you can tweak and install/uninstall anything you want with pacman
