Install Script on Github

I am running Proxmox in the lab.

After banging my head against the wall for days, I found this

https://github.com/oddlama/gentoo-install.git


It worked on the first try. Congrats to the author!!!

Now I am going to try it on a commercial VPS.

Footnote: Glad you guys bumped this over to the proper area on the forum. That was my fault.

I know this script that I found on GitHub is unsupported but it works well.

VPS installations have been a challenge and failure until now.

This has solved the problem. I used an Arch Linux ISO and then cloned the github script and ran it.

Gonna try AWS next.


There are 3 kinds of Gentoo forum members...

1) Nerds that have huge amounts of Gentoo experience but have complete disregard for anyone less than a fellow nerd.

2) Experienced Gentoo pro's who like to help and provide good answers to the best of their ability.

3) Experienced Linux pro's who have certifications, run production systems and want to explore the origins of Debian and RedHat.

So guess where I place myself.

Here you are: Between keyboard and chair, right in front of the monitor.

I'm glad you found something that works for you, but at the same time I have absolutely no idea what you're trying to achieve with this thread.
