The install guide says to use apple as the kernel at the boot prompt, but this is incorrect, there are 3 kernels in the min cd. ppc32 G5 and an IBM one. I believe this guide should be updated to remove any confusion.

I'm confused. Why would it be a bug report? There aren't any bugs, it works correctly, it's the documentation that is incorrect. I thought the Documentation Forum would be the best place for it.

nono... wrong on two counts.

#1: DT+T is for user-created howto's, etc. This is *about* documentation, which moreso belongs in gentoo chat or other things gentoo.

#2: bgo is for more than just bugs - file it under "documentation".
