redbull_monsta,

I'm probably wasting my time posting this unless you still want to move to gentoo.

Bumping your own post is a really bad idea on these forums. There is a link that says "view unanswered posts" and you drop right out sight when you bump.

Anyway. in answer to your original question, you cannot compile a new kernel module on the box you are doing the stage 1 install on. You need at least the kernel header source files, for the kerenl on the liveCD.

You can build it on another linux box though.

redbull_monsta,

If you do a stage 3 install or a GRP install, you can upgrade it to a stage 1 by doing an
Code:
emerge world -e
after you have fixed /etc/make.conf to your taste.

This emerge command rebuids everything except glibc, so you need to do that too.

You can roll your own kernel at stage 3 time.
