So, make a mental note -- if you experience some problem with Funtoo Linux, during installation or otherwise, the proper course of action is to not add a work-around to our documentation, but to ''open a bug on our bug tracker'', or if your problem is potentially a support issue, ask for help on IRC or our forums. This is important because the problem you experienced may be a legitimate bug and the solution may be to fix the bug rather than add a work-around to our documentation, or the problem may be an issue that requires support rather than an actual documentation fix.
