One qualified as “advanced layouts” was particularly “unfriendly” for new users when installing. The absence of a classic installer as in most distributions means that many do not dare to try Gentoo, but now there is an option to facilitate the initial installation.

User called Brodlo has used the code of Red Hat Anaconda installer to schedule an installer for Gentoo , and that allows us to install Gentoo as an environment Live, a new ISO Gentoo.

As indicated in Ostatic

in the Live environment is added Git repository and is an emerging about him, and once installed, you should be able to install the binary Gentoo. The other option is to create a custom DVD Live , which lets you mount the ISO, copying the hard drive, chroot into that directory, Anaconda install, replace the squashfs image, and pull the ISO to install .

Maybe this idea for the installation of Gentoo, it is not official, end integrated into its next edition final , although in principle the idea is to choose a binary system with pre-compiled and-lo that causes you to lose a little spirit “compilation” of Gentoo, at least be a way for new users to know this distribution.
