I decided to get a little goofy and silly last night, and installed gentoo through script. Then I converted the entire thing into binaries, and have been building up a standard system while making it work through binaries. I’ve installed regular gentoo plenty of times, and have no need for source compilation. So this works. Maybe consider that if you’re wanting to do gentoo but don’t want to spend a whole weekend working on it. The script I used is the oddlama one, which installs the binkernel.
