I don't quite understand. When you're installing stuff from within Kubuntu (or whatever Live CD), you're in a Gentoo chroot. Why can't you install mirrorselect there and run mirrorselect in the chroot? > Also, obviously, you will not be able to use genkernel and > automagically compile kernel (there could be other ways ?). Same question, basically. Why can''t you run genkernel in the chroot (I only used genkernel once, and then switched back to compiling the kernel by myself)?
