Hi, I tested the Metro days ago and is amazing, but I have alot of questions and I don't find a documentation, just a simple tutorial link : http://www.funtoo.org/Metro I'm not an expert on Funtoo so I need a documentation to learn. example of few questions: - how can I add a make.conf modificated to new stage - change the python version - change the gcc version and recompile the toolchain I really appreciate if someone create a article with more details about Meto. thank you.

Hi, I am trying to install funtoo on my chromebook. I have Intel Celeron 3215. I am also running funtoo on my Linode. I noticed that funtoo wasn't providing the broadwell stage3 tarballs so I decided to use Metro and build a broadwell tarball. (I already tried to use haswell tarball, same problem "Illegal Instruction"). Once my broadwell tarball was ready I decided to use that one. I am getting the same error on that one too ("Illegal Instruction"). Did my Metro built tarball came out wrong? Please help.

Hi funtooers, I was born with a bad left eye and hence my right eye is EXTREMELY strained, myopic and tired after 30+ years of using and working with computers. Before I possibly needlessly start reading through the pages for Metro, I would like to know if pursuing the associated processes would produce any sufficient benefits over installing the available Stage 3 Build for my Laptop. Boot time is important to me and for a reference from the moment the GRUB entry was executed, for Manajaro 0.9.0 Xfce+Ob OpenRC, the Login Screen was displayed in 22 seconds which is a lot better than the variable 30+ seconds it would take for Manjaro Xfce 0.8.10 using systemd (vomit!!). Applications I would be using would be as follows. Internet Browser - Pale Moon Skype aMule Network Manager - USB Broadband Modems Libre Office PDF Editing - Master PDF Editor GIMP Text Editor D.E. - Xfce or Cinnamon Multimedia Audio/Video Burning Screenshot File Manager - spaceFM File Search is really good GParted Gnome Disks inxi -F produces the following output.

I am wondering what happened to the ./metro/subarch directory and its various .spec files containing CFLAGS, CPU_FLAGS_X86, etc. for each subarch?

If I'm understanding the Metro build process correctly, the profile configured in build.conf is sourced from the portage snapshot, and not the build computer. If that is so, is there a way to insert a profile into metro, like gentoo:funtoo/1.0/linux-musl I have a cut down funtoo profile for musl , just arch (x86_64) / build (current) / flavor (minimal) , and a build env setup, using the new gentoo musl stage3 just posted, with metro installed. I can build a normal gentoo:funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu stage3, but not anything from gentoo:base because of the arch / build / flavor requirements of metro. So I can't use a gentoo:hardened/linux/musl/ profile. By the way, Daniel, and everyone else who worked to get this site backup and running, you guys are awe inspiring, thanks for the hard work rebuilding the site. Amazing job...
