Translations:Install/Download and Extract Stage3/15/en

Once the stage is downloaded, extract the contents with the following command, substituting in the actual name of your Stage 3 tarball:

root # tar --numeric-owner -xpf stage3-latest.tar.xz

   Important

It is very important to use both tar's "--numeric-owner" and "p" option when extracting the Stage 3 tarball - it tells tar to preserve any permissions and ownership that exists within the archive, and use the user IDs and group IDs defined in the archive rather than adapting them to match those of the LiveCD. Without this option, your Funtoo Linux filesystem permissions will be incorrect.
