Hello, please which package do I have to emerge in order to get the net-setup tool in my freshly installed gentoo system?
Thank you : ).

What is it that you're wanting to do? What does the net-setup tool do? If it's as obvious as it sounds, then you may want to look at /etc/conf.d/net.example on your freshly installed gentoo system for network setup info. Otherwise, point your browser to http://gentoo-portage.com to browse through portage. |

I did use net-setup in the SystemRescueCd from sysresccd.org which helped me configure my network in a few seconds quickly and easily sparing me additional headach to my last gentoo installation's, as long as I chroot from the sysrecue cd system it's okay, however I need the net-setup command when booting from my own system (freshly installed gentoo : ), cause I absolutely want to avoid the stress and headach occasioned by setting up network manually as I actually have many other problems to care of too, I know it's not too much the gentoo/linux way to use tools that do work for me instead of doing it myself but it has been a long time I didn't use gentoo(see linux) and I need some time to get refamiliarized with the cow : ).
Thank you |

Install app-misc/livecd-tools
emerge app-misc/livecd-tools
but you should edit and add ip gateway & dns in /etc/conf.d/net
