Gentoo on the MacBook Pro
OS X is nice and all, but Gentoo is "<3", and in my terms, "<3" is more than just "nice". So, having a desktop machine with a crappy perfomance (including long compilation times), I decided to get the "G" onto my Mac.
There are several resources on Gentoo and Apple Computers, basically two pages from the Gentoo Wiki and Odi’s guide.
But none of them cover the installation on an external hard drive, which is the way I'd like to install Gentoo.
So, in the next few days I hope to get it quite working and I will share my "wisdom" with y'all just in case somebody tries to do the same thing...
UPDATE: wtf? Apple's legacy boot code isn't working with external drives. Nothing you can do against it. So, project postponed. Sorry!
