Gentoo Installation Guide

Gentoo Installation#

Preparation#

# Format USB drive
sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb -I
# Burn LiveCD
sudo dd if=install-amd64-minimal-20210829T170531Z.iso of=/dev/sdb
# Insert into the computer to be installed, reboot to livecd
# Check network card
ifconfig
# Use Ethernet or WIFI
## If using Ethernet jump to sshd configuration
# ----------------Connect to WIFI-------------------
## If using WIFI
wpa_supplicant -B -i network_card -C /var/run/wpa_supplicant
wpa_cli -i network_card
# Scan
> scan
# View scan results
> scan_result
# Usually returns 0
> add_network
> set_network 0 ssid "WIFI name to connect"
> set_network 0 psk "WIFI password to connect"
# Connect to wifi
> enable_network 0
# Exit
> quit
# Check network
ifconfig
# ----------------sshd-------------------
# Generate key
# ssh-keygen -t dsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
# Run
/usr/sbin/sshd
# Change livecd root password
passwd
## Then connect to the machine to be installed via ssh from another machine in the local area network

Prepare Disk#

Disk Details

# Partition
# If the disk label type is not GPT, you need to change the disk label to GPT
# First install parted to change the disk label type
# sudo emerge -av sys-block/parted
# sudo parted
# mklabel gpt
# quit # This completes, then use cfdisk for partitioning
#sudo su
cfdisk /dev/sda
#sda1 ---/boot--->vfat                   >=200M     # Note to set flags for esp
#sda2 ---/--->ext4,btrfs,xfs,jfs.etc     >=20G      # Suggested size at least 20G
#sda3 ---swap--->                        >=2G       # Unless you have 16G memory

After writing, exit and enter sudo fdisk -l to check if the partition was successful. Next, format:

# If mkfs.vfat command is not available, it needs to be installed
emerge -av sys-fs/dosfstools
mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1
mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda2
mkswap /dev/sda3

Download image stage3-amd64-systemd-20210630T214504Z.tar.xz

Be sure to choose the appropriate image, for example, if you want to install a desktop environment, choose an image with desktop.

# Create directory
# mkdir /mnt/gentoo
# Mount
mount -v /dev/sda2 /mnt/gentoo
cd /mnt/gentoo
# Replace the following URL with the latest URL above
wget https://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/gentoo/releases/amd64/autobuilds/current-stage3-amd64-systemd/stage3-amd64-systemd-20220417T171236Z.tar.xz
# Copy
# cp stage3-amd64-systemd-*.tar.xz /mnt/gentoo
# Extract

Configure Repository#

cd /mnt/gentoo
mkdir /mnt/gentoo/etc/portage/repos.conf
nano /mnt/gentoo/etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf
# Content is
[gentoo]
location = /var/db/repos/gentoo
sync-type = rsync
#sync-uri = rsync://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/gentoo-portage/
sync-uri = rsync://rsync.mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/gentoo-portage/
auto-sync = yes

Enter chroot#

Copy DNS

cp --dereference /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/

Mount

mount -t proc /proc /mnt/gentoo/proc
mount --rbind /sys /mnt/gentoo/sys
mount --make-rslave /mnt/gentoo/sys
mount --rbind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
mount --make-rslave /mnt/gentoo/dev

If it is a Debian distribution, you also need to

test -L /dev/shm && rm /dev/shm && mkdir /dev/shm
mount --types tmpfs --options nosuid,nodev,noexec shm /dev/shm
chmod 1777 /dev/shm

Enter chroot

chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
source /etc/profile

Remember to mount boot

mount /dev/sda1 /boot

Choose Profile and Update System#

# Use snapshot to update Portage:
emerge-webrsync
# List profiles:
eselect profile list

86f62f9a-35ad-41a8-8ff3-f1920d8a6ca5

Here I directly chose: 15

# systemd without desktop system environment
eselect profile set 15
# Then comes the long update
date && emerge -auvDN --with-bdeps=y @world && date
# If you encounter unmet xxx or other prompts:
emerge -auvDN --with-bdeps=y --autounmask-write @world
# Enter update configuration, ensure no files are available for update when running again
etc-update --automode -3
emerge -auvDN --with-bdeps=y @world
# If the above still cannot solve the problem, enter the /etc/portage directory and delete package.use, package.mask, and package.unmask files or directories and try again
# At this point, you can go watch a movie...
# Wait for it to finish, don't rush, run these commands:
emerge @preserved-rebuild
perl-cleaner --all
emerge -auvDN --with-bdeps=y @world
# Ensure no updates before continuing, otherwise check output and try running again
# 2021-07-02 15:05 - 2021-07-02 16:46

Configure Timezone and Locale#

echo "Asia/Shanghai" > /etc/timezone
emerge --config sys-libs/timezone-data

echo "en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
zh_CN.UTF-8 UTF-8" >> /etc/locale.gen

locale-gen

eselect locale list

eselect locale set X # Replace X with the number displayed by the above command

Configure fstab#

# View UUID
blkid
nano /etc/fstab
# Content
UUID=4BB8-C88F                                /boot    vfat    defaults    0    0
UUID=8240d786-8908-4cdd-a00c-e3d265515a1e    /        ext4    defaults    0    0

Install NetworkManager#

emerge -av networkmanager

If it says there are unmet xxxx or other prompts:

emerge --autounmask-write networkmanager
# Enter yes
etc-update --automode -3
emerge networkmanager

systemd add boot service:

systemctl enable NetworkManager

Modify hostname in /etc/conf.d/hostname, for example:

echo hostname=\"intent-gentoo\" > /etc/conf.d/hostname

Install Some Necessary Tools and Configure#

emerge app-admin/sysklogd sys-process/cronie sudo layman grub
sed -i 's/\# \%wheel ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL/\%wheel ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL/g' /etc/sudoers
# Or manually edit /etc/sudoers file
passwd # It's time to set the root password
# Gentoo's default password rules must mix uppercase and lowercase
# You can edit the following file to modify
nano /etc/security/passwdqc.conf
# Content as follows
min=8,7,6,5,4
max=72
passphrase=3
match=4
similar=deny
random=47
enforce=everyone
retry=20

If you are using systemd:

sed -i 's/\# GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=\"init=\/usr\/lib\/systemd\/systemd\"/GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=\"init=\/usr\/lib\/systemd\/systemd\"/g' /etc/default/grub
ln -sf /proc/self/mounts /etc/mtab
systemd-machine-id-setup

Configure and Install Kernel#

When compiling the kernel, be sure to check the vfat module!!!

# If you are currently running a normal Linux:
sudo cp -r /usr/src/linux* /mnt/gentoo/usr/src
# Or
scp /usr/src/linux/.config root@192.168.110.7:/mnt/gentoo/usr/src/linux
# You can also use xanmod
# First install app-eselect/eselect-repository
emerge -av app-eselect/eselect-repository
# Then select the mirror
# eselect repository list | grep src_prepare-overlay
# Choose the src_prepare-overlay source
# eselect repository enable 320
sudo eselect repository enable src_prepare-overlay

emerge -av dev-vcs/git
# Update source
emerge --sync
# Then search for xanmod
emerge -s xanmod-sources
# Install, may need to bypass firewall
emerge -av xanmod-sources

ln -s linux-* linux

# You can also install the official Gentoo source
emerge -av sys-kernel/gentoo-sources
# You can also choose the official Gentoo compiled image
emerge -av sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel

make localyesconfig # Or make menuconfig
# If prompted for missing bc
emerge -av sys-devel/bc
# If asked for new options, just press enter all the way, 23333
make -j8
make modules_install
make install
emerge -av sys-kernel/genkernel
genkernel --install initramfs

Install GRUB and Create User#

grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot --bootloader-id=Gentoo
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
# Create EFI BOOT folder
mkdir /boot/EFI/BOOT
cp /boot/EFI/Gentoo/grubx64.efi /boot/EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.efi

Create an administrator and set a password:

useradd -m -G users,wheel,portage,usb,video intent
passwd intent

Graphics Driver#

See: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Intel

Intel Single Graphics Card:

emerge -av x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel
# If it says there are unmet xxxx or other prompts:
# Enter yes
etc-update --automode -3
emerge -av x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel

Install Desktop#

emerge -av xorg-server

GNOME#

emerge -av gnome-shell gdm gnome-terminal
systemctl enable gdm

If you encounter the need to update the configuration, run etc-update --automode -3 and run the command again.
