[1] after verifying the date, if you do not need to fix it, then you do not need to write it back to hwclock. This could be made more obvious with more headers or tips or something


https://www.funtoo.org/Install/Download_and_Extract_Stage3 What Subarch? in the discord today we learned that if you aren't sure, you should use the lower/older stage march, and then build up from there

after chrooting, it is important to ego profile subarch btver1_64 and then emerge -av1 @world


https://www.funtoo.org/Install/Chroot note For users of live CDs with 64-bit kernels installing 32-bit systems: Some software may use uname -r to check whether the system is 32 or 64-bit. You may want to append linux32 to the chroot command as a workaround, but it's generally not needed. we do don't support 32bit support right?

It's also a good idea to change the default command prompt while inside the chroot. This will avoid confusion if you have to change terminals. Use this command: chroot # export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"

export is unnecessary here, afaict

rest of this looks good imho EDIT: Actually I recommend combining Chroot with the next section


https://www.funtoo.org/Install/MBR_Partitioning at the bottom here we say to "Now, jump over to Creating filesystems" but that just takes you back to /Install/Introduction due to bad/old link. The idea is that we can skip the Next page of GPT partitioning,
