Gentoo-Install-Scripts

An install script to automate setting up a base gentoo system. Note: An ncurses based UI, or a toolkit based GUI may be coming. Depends on contributions.

Usage

Boot either a Gentoo-based or Arch-based live-CD, create your partitions like the examples below, then run the script.

Important

By default, the script does not use the partition table in the Gentoo handbook. Be sure to partition your drive first, and check the script to make sure it targets the correct drive near the top (simple to do); no need to format it, the script does this.

Filesystem Paritions:
/dev/nvme0np1 -> Boot partition
/dev/nvme0np2 -> Swap partition
/dev/nvme0np3 -> Root partition

-or-

/dev/sda1 -> Boot partition
/dev/sda2 -> Swap partition
/dev/sda3 -> Root partition

This script will need some minor modifications; especially for the kernel config file (either you will need to supply your own or use the default "USE_KERNEL_CONFIG=false" value). These modifications depend on your system. Also, this script uses OpenRC as its primary init system.

At the moment, the script installs KDE Plasma and the proprietary Nvidia driver by default (the GPU driver can be changed).

Another thing to note is that the script by default builds for UEFI systems. This can be changed.
