I've been looking around for a way to install gentoo just by plopping an ISO into a known partition,.
I'm not getting much from google on this search string: install gentoo directly from iso. Or I should say: I've found a couple of how toos but they involve quite a lot of mumbo jumbo like this one: http://nlug.ml1.co.uk/2011/06/boot-livecd-iso-image-from-hdd/305 I can follow that alright but first wanted to make sure there is not a well established mainstream way of doing it.
