Hello,

I've just finished the stage3 installation step, so, I can already boot the system. However, as I only have one computer at home (the laptop I'm typing this text right now, from the SystemRescueCD livecd WindowMaker DE), I wonder if I could chroot into my gentoo system and install Gnome from here so that I can keep on using FireFox to browse the documentation (don't like CLI-based browsers).

Thanks in advance.

U could use scp to copy the contents of your /usr/portage/distfiles and then install gnome on your new computer
