Thanks everyone for there responses. I'm now re-working my effort into a script (hopefully this can be generalized so that others can use it).
There are a few dependencies for the script: 1) Toolsbox 2) Prefixed portage 3) ebuild tree (including profile) 4) Settings (/etc files) 5) Virtual filesystem (/etc, /usr/, /var, etc that will reside under the PREFIX directory) I have questions with 3-5. Kito has an ebuild tree, which I can use for 3. But his profile is Darwin specific. He said I will need to make my own profile. But where do I get the profile to start from? I have a gentoo installation I can copy it from, but I'm trying to ask is where this is stored in svn... Wait, Kito said it wasn't stored, so how is it derived? I'm just trying to understand the process here. Regarding 4-5. Is it ok to just take this from a stage1? If so, then this will be arch specific (which is fine, I'm just noting that). Is 5 even necessary or will portage just add needed directories along the way? Will post my script later.... -- [email protected] mailing list
