Description Chas 2005-11-30 01:41:11 UTC

A number of examples and text have been blocked out or are missing altogether.
It looks as if a draft version has been posted instead of the finished one. For
example, see sections "10.b Using GRUB" and "1.d. When Portage is Complaining..."

Also, the quality of the grammar and clarity of explainations have dropped
significantly since previous releases. And where are the instructions for Stage
1 and Stage 2?! The information provided is very valuable! I hope that the docs
are not being dumbed down so they wind up like the rubbish from other distribs
and Micro$.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. View http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?full=1.
2.
3.

Actual Results:

N, it's not, and this has already been covered in many places
