So what do I do if something fails when I emerge all this stuff? Is my
server going to go down? I am just wondering if there is anything I can
do to protect myself from downtime and errors. I did a pretend emerge
and there are a TON of dependencies

man emerge
--buildpkgonly (-B)
Creates binary packages for all ebuilds processed without
actually merging the packages. This comes with the caveat that all
build-time dependencies must already be emerged on the system.

Hello I am updating a server I built some time ago using a GRP install.
I want to do an emerge -uD world, but I want to know for sure this is
going to work before doing this. Can I tell it somehow to compile all
the packages but not install them?
