Description Krzysztof Wierzbicki 2005-12-09 00:09:13 UTC
I was installing a gentoo from stage1, i have noticed that there is missing one 
part. I can't see any information about bootstrap in any handbook. I have 
checked other platforms than x86 (sparc,amd64) and there is no bootstrap either.
Is now bootstrap not needed to install gentoo from stage1. If it is not needed 
any more, why there are problems in Gentoo installation ?
