As far as I remember you're asked to choose a > profile :-) I can file a bug it needs to be done :-) Just let me know That's part 1 (installing), chapter 6 (base system), section 6.b. (portage), heading "Choosing the right profile". The handbook (at least the amd64 handbook I checked, presumably they're pretty much the same in this regard) now says to use eselect profile, so as long as it's listing the correct choices, the examples and details don't matter quite so much. However, the examples/details do mention desktop and server profiles (plus no-multilib for amd64) as alternates to the generic arch profile, so they /could/ be changed to additionally mention kde and gnome. But with eselect profile doing the heavy lifting already, I'd not call it critical. But be sure that eselect is getting the correct listing... for all archs. =:^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
