Hello All,
I was wondering if Gentoo was capable of a secure wifi connection before I go through the installation process. Thanks! --kwa71 |

There is no Gentoo until you install it, thus the answer is - it depends on installation media you will be using. SystemRescueCD is a popular choice, but if you already have some Linux live CD with wireless support - Ubuntu, whatnot - go ahead and use it. _________________ My Gentoo installation notes.
Please learn how to denote units correctly! |

So that means if I utilize Stage 3, it's at a "bare-bones" level? Meaning: I have to configure it from the ground up? I guess my question now is "How do I configure Secure Wifi w/ Stage 3? Thanks! --kwa71 |

I'd use dhcpcd to manage wpa_supplicant, but you're a while away from there. |
