I think it is actually a compliment to the flexibility of Gentoo that these derivatives are so different. Gentoo is a somewhat-generic linux distro overall - in its default install it isn't too different from Debian/Ubuntu/Fedora/Arch on the surface and in terms of typical package selection. However, ChromeOS and CoreOS are very non-traditional linux "distros." When people ask me what Gentoo is "good for" I of course talk about enthusiasts who care about both understanding their systems and having a high degree of control, but I also talk about projects where you're trying to blaze new trails and departing significantly from the typical "linux desktop" or LAMP box. If all you want is a stable LAMP box then honestly you're probably better off with the likes of Debian/CentOS/etc. However, if you're doing something embedded, or trying to change the world, then starting with Gentoo gives you a lot more flexibility to blaze new ground while not having to build EVERYTHING from scratch. So, when people use Gentoo to do things that we personally don't find useful, I think it is just a testimony to the fact that we've actually accomplished one of our core missions: empowering our users to make their own choices. +1 more power to you Rich. thanks Saifi.

According to wikipedia, CoreOS is a fork of ChromeOS [1]. ChromeOS is most definitely a Gentoo derivative [2,3,4], even though that fact is not really well known (and not really publicised). i suppose, CoreOS uses the 'update mechanism' from ChromeOS to provide autoupdate service (a/b). for all practical purposes, CoreOS is a Gentoo derivative. thanks Saifi.

CoreOS a gentoo derived distro, had made a very elegant use of 'systemd'. systemd consists of 'unit' and 'target'. 'unit' is config file containing 'docker run' command. 'target' is the grouping mechanism (equiv to fig.yml and upcoming 'docker group' command) systemtd is exclusively used to manage the lifecycle of 'docker' containers ! thanks Saifi.

Thanks for your reply. Here are things i explored: 1. simply renaming did not work (it should not since the md5 hashes would not match) 2. making a separate copy with ebuild did not work out as 'emerge' kept complaining about the missing digest. 3. next i attempted creating a separate file in /usr/portage/metadata/md5-cache/dev-java for oracle-jdk-bin-1.8.0.20 file with 'repoman manifest' it did not work however emerge started complaining about missing jdk's for i586, solaris etc. Meanwhile i took a close look at the /usr/portage/eclass directory and also tried to locate where 'inherit' is defined. 'inherit' is a function defined in /usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild.sh file with its bucket full of 'bash'isms. Oh well ! As a simple solution i did the following: . create directory /home/saifi/jdk180u20 . extract the jdk and place the jce file . create a script file to setup the PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH and CLASSPATH This works absolutely fine since i can work with multiple versions of JDK including JDK9 (dev) without worrying about 'pythonic scriptilicious' emerge, ebuild, equery, eix, euse, epkg, eclean ..! Thanks to everybody who helped me out. thanks Saifi.
