# DO NOT REBOOT AFTER AUTOMATED INSTALLATION
## to setup efibootmgr
emerge --oneshot efibootmgr
efibootmgr -c -d /dev/nvme0n1 -p 1 -L "GENTOO" -l '\EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI'
replace nvme0n1 with sd* depending on what hard drive you're using
emerge --depclean efibootmgr
emerge --depclean
you might need to go to your BIOS to change boot priority
you could just use grub by changing settings if this doesnt work
## todo
- figure out how shell works
- automatically install programs i like
- not break things (hopefully)
## some notes ## some notes
- in its current state, it doesnt work cause fstab doesnt use uuids (which i prefer cause it looks cooler)
- if you've never installed gentoo before, don't use automated installer because it makes you miss out on the unique parts of gentoo
- or just use any other distro that's not gentoo lmao
- if you keep running out of memory when emerging, modify the makeopts to what gentoo wiki recommends
- this thing is as stable as a russian rocket back in the space race, expect your computer to brick when things go wrong
- i didnt test this yet lol
