I was following the install instructions, using the stage1 tarball, but when I got to the part about adding a user, I discovered that 'useradd' was not installed. I
think the install is missing a step like 'emerge -k sys-apps/shadow", or I did some other step incorrectly. If anyone has any suggestions on what happened, I'd
appreciate it. I should say that I was installing from a KNOPPIX liveCD, on an AMD Athlon, but the KNOPPIX CD was having trouble being read, so the 'useradd' from that
CD would not have worked.

Is it perhaps just not in the path? Does /usr/sbin/useradd not exist?

Unfortunately it is much worse than that. I skipped from bootstrap to building the kernel. I must've been more tired than I thought when I was getting this set up.
Does the kernel have to be built after 'emerge system'? Or was that just a good idea?

I.e., I just ran emerge system, will I have to re-build the kernel?
