I have read the handbook several times and have /etc/portage/package.use subdirectory on the system. Should the next file put in that directory be named sys-kernel/install-kernel and have contents of: USE="dracut" in that file? This is the prerequisite for installing a distribution kernel. The way the handbook is written it doesn't make any of this clear. A few more lines with specific commands could help this piece of the handbook out. -- Jude <jdashiel at panix dot com> "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
