Install Gentoo

because its the best OS out there right now

/Thread

install netbsd

I was watching a YouTube live, this guy was repairing a macbook, and he literally ranted for some time when i asked him to install gentoo

Because it's good to try new thing every now and then

please go on. Sounds like an interesting story

install plan9

portage is an exceptional package manager

it's exceptionally slow

it respects your freedoms

Portage is the best package manager of all time
>can use whatever compile/use flags you want (so you're not stuck on that vim version that has no clipboard because your library host decided so)
>can have multiple package versions installed at once
>don't have to compile, just set up a portage binhost
>missing a package? just get a portage overlay (no "sudo apt update" required!)

USE=-systemd

make your own decisions you pathetic empty husk

Hardened,musl,no systemd

gentoo hardened used to exist

>instell gentoo
>Setup systemd instead of openrc by following the handbook
try to issue commands like localectl, hostnamectl, timedatectl
>Failed to create bus connection. No such file or directory

Deleting this fucking meme os and installing arch linux
It just works.

Because it literally won't be fucking worth it sitting on your ass compiling literally everything for fuckings on no end

sauce

for fucking hours on no end*

> not masking sys-fs/udev and sys-apps/systemd.

I shiggydiggy.

it's honestly not that bad and doesn't force systemd down your throat.


OpenSUSE is my other goto for linux.

OP will be dead by that time software finishs compiling

>reading comprehension
the average non-gentoo user

this

at the very least gentoo should have documentation to set something as important as systemd up if they're going to offer it as an option. I had problems too.

I heard Funtoo is easy to install and supports games? Is that true?

>decided to give the gentoo meme a whirl
>it was easy as fuck
millenials just have no idea what it was like to run linux in the 90's when there was 0 driver support and you couldn't google the answer to everything

>unironically wanting to use syswormd
NSA luvs u bb

You will receive unlimited pussy

can confirm
I use gentoo and pussy everyday

You can run multiple portage at the same time.

Because I don't have time for compile the whole OS, DE and other utilities

You will find yourself

if you use binhost you are using binaries meaning 90% of the reason for using portage is gone

outside of the kernel and a webbrowser compiling is not that bad unless you're on old ass hardware in which case you might actually see performance improvements from the software custom compiled anywho.

Sup Forums will kinda repect you

Sounds awful. How did you even run it if there were no drivers?

This

I didn't get laid until I installed gentoo

what does plan9 have

Yeah, it's built on top of gentoo but they made it normie-friendly so average people can enjoy it without the autistic installation process. Best game support too, I have not run into a single Windows game in my steam library that didn't work on funtoo.

Currently installing Gentoo onto my T420. Compiling kind of slowly but it's a fun learning experience since most of my linux exp was from Debian.

Install gentoo with me Sup Forums?

forgot pic

how is that going to work when you're not in an OS, unless it's a VM

>>File: 1410490977259.jpg

Nice try, faggot

VM

what? the kernel is fast to compile.

Chroium/(firefox)/llvm/webkit/libreoffice however

wtf I like arch now

>not also setting INSTALL_MASK="/usr/lib/systemd/ /etc/systemd/" in make.conf

>Deleting this fucking meme os and installing arch linux
Sure takes you a long time to get mad emotional, son. You encounter one issue you can't immediately solve and you throw your toys out of the pram. You're the guy who in a couple of months makes a thread about hating Linux because your Arch broke and you don't know how to fix it. "FUCK LINUX AND ALL YOU FREETARDS!!!! WINDOWS 10 JUST WORSK!!!!" You're that guy. Why even try to play ball outside of the sandbox made for plebs who don't know anything about tech? Clearly you're not the type of person who is interested in the inner workings and motivated to learn about stuff. You're just an infant who throws tantrums when things don't go exactly as you wish right off the bat.

>compiling libreoffice

ain't nobody got that kind of time

> google chromium

The same thing happens on arch as well and you need to do those manually.
T. Was installing arch an hour ago

2:06:00 not sure if he talked before about it

nasa

holy shit he's mad

it really does just work though if you install Ubuntu or something, what the fuck is he smoking

I meant on the image, but I found it already.

you learned assembly very quickly bud

gtfo

so tell me, if you had a laptop or something that booted a black screen when you tried to boot a GNU/Linux environment, you would program in assembly? How did you know what to do? Did you have any training in creating drivers?

...

forgot to start dbus you fucking retard.

>systemctl start dbus
>Failed to connect to bus. No such file or directory
T-thanks

is this running in windows

Good learning process.

obviously standard interfaces still worked, you'd at least be able to get running in text mode heh

If you used a systemd stage3 just wait until you boot into it to do that shit.
