    There are certain parts of the guide where i really wish it went into more detail.

    Last time i installed Gentoo i had the Arch wiki open alongside the guide to help translate

      Yeah to be fair it does make some assumptions about you knowing how to do something or know what you want.

        The arch wiki is a good substitute, but the gentoo wiki when it was still around and at its peak was amazing.

        But I agree… Gentoo is not quite keeping up with a lot of details. Like experimenting with refind, dracut, efistubs, I felt I was in the dark a lot of the time. I ended up making very few mistakes, because the distro is very good at working for special cases even if all the details are not explained. Still my favourite distro.
