If you've had previous experience installing Gentoo Linux then a lot of steps will be familiar, but it is important to understand that Funtoo is a different community, and we use Funtoo differently than you are used to using Gentoo. In particular, we don't put anything in /etc/make.conf! Yes, really! We use community-curated multi-profiles to set everything, including CPU optimizations, desktop environment settings, media settings and other things. Please see Wolf Pack Philosophy and take the time to read it carefully to get acquainted with your new community, how we work, and why we do things the way we do. We will cover the new profile setup in this installation guide.
