Gentoo

I actually made an installation script the second time I installed gentoo.
Now, I just have to move my already config and that's it.
Seriously, that's not that hard.


You just have to copy your config file, and
make olddefconfig; make modules_prepare; make; make modules_install; make install; grub-mkconfig -O /boot/grub/grub.cfg
I don't even know if "make modules_prepare/install" is any useful.
And people bitching about configuration; seriously, I had to move everything to each new distro I ever installed. The only difference with gentoo is the installation; even though you can automate it with a script.

Better stuff here:

Just use genkernel, that's exactly what it automates.

Yeah, by bloating up your installation

Use a custom kernel config, retard.

You mean like UEFI variables mounted under /sys/firmware/efi/efivars ?

the whole point of genkernel is that you don't have to use a custom config because it compiles a generic kernel that justwerks with everything

Or you can use a custom config.

Except under linux it's exposed as files for extra easy bricking.

Gentoo doesn't mount those by default.
