Would be nice to have a simplier and cleaner method than use emerge -f system before starting bootstrap.sh, in stage 1 of gentoo installation, to get downloaded all the packages needed by the build process. It's a bit frustrating having to keep the network connection up when not used if you have to pay for it! ;) I suggest to add an option to bootstrap.sh (explained as usual with the "-h", "--help" parameter) such as "-d", "--download". Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
OK, --fetchonly/-f and --help/-h are now valid bootstrap.sh options (should hit rsync in an hour or so.) Thanks for the suggestion :)
