도입부
Please note that many of these questions are answered within the official Gentoo documents and guides. This is simply a list of common questions. Please read the documentation and/or man pages to gain a greater understanding of how Gentoo and GNU/Linux works, and for answers to questions which may not be answered here.

Gentoo는 어떻게 발음하고, 무슨 뜻이죠?
Gentoo is pronounced "gen-too" (the "g" in "Gentoo" is a soft "g", as in "gentle"). The scientific name of the Gentoo penguin is Pygoscelis papua. The name Gentoo has been given to the penguin by the inhabitants of the Falkland Islands.

젠투를 특별하게 하는건 무엇인가요?
Gentoo uses a BSD ports-like system called Portage. Portage is a package management system that allows great flexibility while installing and maintaining software on a Gentoo system. It provides compile-time option support (through USE flags), conditional dependencies, pre-package installation summary, safe installation (through sandboxing) and uninstallation of software, system profiles, configuration file protection amongst several other features.

With Gentoo you can build your entire system from source, using your choice of optimizations. You have complete control over what packages are or aren't installed. Gentoo provides you with numerous choices, so you can install Gentoo to your own preferences, which is why Gentoo is called a meta-distribution.

Gentoo is actively developed. The entire distribution uses a rapid pace development style: patches to the packages are quickly integrated in the mainline tree, documentation is updated on daily basis, Portage features are added frequently, and official releases occur twice per year.

-O9 -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer 최적화 옵션을 썼는데 되게 불안정해요. 어떻게 해야 하나요?
Don't bother using anything higher than  since it isn't supported by current versions of gcc. Very aggressive optimizations sometimes cause the compiler to streamline the assembly code to the point where it doesn't quite do the same thing anymore.

Please try to compile with CFLAGS  before reporting a bug.

루트(또는 다른 사용자) 암호를 어떻게 바꿔요?
You can use  to change the password for the user you are logged into. As root, you can change any user password by issuing the command. For extra options and setting, please.

일반 사용자를 어떻게 추가하죠?
The command  will add a user called "username". However, this method does not give the user many of the rights you might want to grant them, so the following command is preferred:

This will add a user named "username". The option  adds the user to the   group and allows them to access sound devices. The option  adds the user to the   group, which allows them to execute the command. This in turn allows the user to gain  privileges.

왜 사용자가 su 명령으로 루트 진입을 못하죠?
For security reasons, users may only  to root if they belong to the wheel group. To add a username to the wheel group, issue the following command as root:

다시 설치하지 않고도 젠투를 어떤 릴리즈에서 다른 릴리즈로 업그레이드할 수 있나요?
In fact, there is no difference between the various releases after they have been installed. Gentoo 1.4 and later are  (or higher) based. As such, running  will bring your entire system up to speed with the "latest Gentoo". The differences between individual releases lie in the installation medium and pre-compiled packages. See the Gentoo Upgrading Guide for more information about profiles and their role in upgrading.

Also note that the  command updates the packages you have installed as well as their dependencies, but not the build-time dependencies (packages needed during builds but not when the software is installed). To update those as well, add the  option.

커널 부팅이 안되는데요 어떻게 해야 돼요?
You don't need to redo every step of the installation, but investigating the kernel and all associated steps is necessary. Suppose you have installed Gentoo on (/boot) and  (/) with  being the swap space.

Boot from the Install CD and wait until you receive a prompt.

Now first mount all partitions:

Then we chroot into our Gentoo environment and configure the kernel:

Now (de)select anything you have (de)selected wrongly at your previous attempt. Then quit and compile your kernel:

Now copy over your bzImage file, overwriting your previous one:

LILO를 사용한다면 lilo를 다시 실행하십시오 -- GRUB 사용자는 다음 과정을 건너뛸 수 있습니다:

이제 chroot를 빠져나가고 다시 부팅하십시오.

If, on the other hand, the problem lies with your bootloader configuration, follow the same steps, but instead of configuring/compiling your kernel, you should reconfigure your bootloader (recompilation isn't necessary).

프록시에서 인증이 필요하다고 하는데, 뭘 해야 하죠?
To have Portage automatically use this scheme, define it in :

ISO 파일은 어떻게 구워요?
You need to burn the file in raw mode. This means that you should not just place the file on the CD, but interpret the file as an entire CD.

There are lots of CD burning tools available; covering them all would be a Sisyphean problem. However, describing a few popular tools never hurts:


 * With EasyCD Creator you select,  . Then you change the   to  . Then locate the ISO file and click  . When you click on   the ISO image will be burned correctly onto the CD-R.


 * With Nero Burning ROM, cancel the wizard which automatically pops up and select  from the   menu. Select the image you want to burn and click  . Now hit the   button and watch your brand new CD being burnt.


 * With cdrecord, you simply type  (replace  with your CD-RW drive's device path) followed by the path to the ISO file.


 * With K3B, select  >   >  . Then you can locate your ISO file within the 'Image to Burn' area. Finally click.


 * With Mac OS X Panther, launch  from, select   from the   menu, select the mounted disk image in the main window and select   in the   menu.


 * With Mac OS X Jaguar, launch  from, select   from the   menu, select the ISO and click the   button.

제 CPU에는 어떤 CD/스테이지를 써야 하나요?
First you need to find out what CPU you use. Suppose it's a Pentium-M. Then you need to find out what CPU it is, instruction-wise, compatible with. You may need to consult the CPU's vendor website for this, although consulting a search engine of your choice should be at least as efficient.

If you are uncertain, take a "lower" CD/stage file, for instance a i686 or even generic x86 (or the equivalent in your arch). This will ensure that your system will work, but may not be as fast as further optimizations.

Please note that many more options exist than those for which Gentoo builds binary stages. Please see the GCC guide for setting.

부팅한 다음에 온라인으로 들어갈 수가 없어요. 뭐가 잘못됐죠?
First you need to check if your network card is discovered properly by the kernel. Run  and look for eth0 or wlan0 (in case of certain wireless network cards). You might need to load specific kernel modules for the kernel to properly detect the network card. If that is the case, make sure that these kernel modules are listed in.

If you have forgotten to include support for your network card in your kernel, you will need to reconfigure your kernel.

If your network card is found by your kernel, but you have set your networking configuration to use DHCP, you might have forgotten to. You will need to reboot with your installation CD to install.

Information on how to rescue your system using the installation CD is available here as well.

I want to boot Windows from GRUB or LILO but it shows only black screen. What should I do?
This is a known problem. Windows refuses to boot when it isn't installed on the first hard drive and shows a black/blank screen. To handle this, you will have to "fool" Windows into believing that it is installed on the first hard drive with a little tweak in your boot loader configuration. Please note that in the below example, Gentoo is installed on (first disk) and Windows on  (second one). Adjust your config as needed.

This will make Windows believe it is installed on the first hard drive and boot without problems. More information can be found in the GRUB documentation and in, depending on the boot loader you're using.

스테이지 1이나 스테이지 2 타르볼을 어떻게 설치하죠?
The Gentoo Handbook only describes a Gentoo installation using a stage3 tarball. However, Gentoo still provides stage1 and stage2 tarballs. This is for development purposes (the Release Engineering team starts from a stage1 tarball to obtain a stage3) but shouldn't be used by users: a stage3 tarball can very well be used to bootstrap the system. You do need a working Internet connection.

Bootstrapping means building the toolchain (the C library and compiler) for your system after which you install all core system packages. To bootstrap the system, perform a stage3 installation. Before you start the chapter on Configuring the Kernel, modify the script to suit your needs:

수정이 끝나면 스크립트를 실행하십시오.

그 다음 모든 핵심 시스템 꾸러미를 새로 빌드한 툴체인으로 다시 빌드하십시오. 스테이지 3 타르볼을 제공했으므로 다시 빌드해야합니다:

이제 "커널 설정"으로 계속 진행하세요.

꾸러미는 어떤 모양새로 저장하죠?
Packages aren't "stored" per se. Instead, Gentoo provides a set of scripts which can resolve dependencies, fetch source code, and compile a version of the package specifically for your needs. We generally only build binaries for releases and snapshots. The Gentoo Ebuild HOWTO covers the contents of an ebuild script in detail.

For full ISO releases, we create a full suite of binary packages in an enhanced  format, which is   compatible with meta-information attached to the end of the file. These can be used to install a working (though not fully optimized) version of the package quickly and efficiently.

It is possible to create RPMs (Red Hat package manager files) using Gentoo's Portage, but it is not currently possible to use already existing RPMs to install packages.

./configure 과정을 제가 실행하고 싶은데, 할 수 있나요?
Yes, but it is not trivial, nor is it recommended. Since the method to do this requires a good understanding of Portage internals and commands, it is instead recommended that you patch the ebuild to do whatever it is that you want and place it in a Portage overlay (that's why overlays exist). This is much better for maintainability, and usually easier. See the Ebuild HOWTO for more information.

rsync를 동작하지 않으면 뭘 사용하나요?
If you're behind a firewall that doesn't permit rsync traffic, then you can use  which will fetch and install a Portage snapshot for you through regular HTTP. See this section for information on downloading source files and Portage snapshots via a proxy.

I have only slow modem connection at home. Can I download sources somewhere else and add them to my system?
Definitely. You can run  to see what programs are going to be installed. To find out the sources for those packages and where to download the sources from, you can run. Download sources and bring them on any media home. Put the sources into and then simply run. Be warned, however, that this is a tedious process.

Source tarballs are collecting in /usr/portage/distfiles/. Is it safe to delete these files?
Deleting these files will have no negative impact on day-to-day performance. However, it might be wise to keep the most recent version of the files; often several ebuilds will be released for the same version of a specific piece of software. If you have deleted the archive and you upgrade the software it will be necessary to download them from the internet again.

You can use the  script from  to manage the contents of  and a few other locations. Please read  to learn more about its usage, as well as the Gentoolkit Guide.

What's in /var/tmp/portage? Is it safe to delete the files and directories in /var/tmp/portage?
During compilation, Gentoo saves the sources of the package in. These files and folder are usually deleted upon a successful merge, but this sometimes fails. It is safe to clean out all contents of this directory if emerge is not running. Just to be sure, always  before cleaning out this directory.

How do I set up an International Keyboard Layout?
Edit the  variable in. To have console working correctly with extended characters in your keymap you might also need to set up variables  and   in your  (for further information on localising your environment, refer to our localization guide). Then, either, or restart the keymaps and consolefont scripts:

DNS name resolution works for root only
has the wrong permissions;  it as follows:

Why can't my user use their own crontab?
You need to add that user to the  group.

How do I get numlock to start on boot?
If you work in command line, you only need to.

Each GUI provides different tools for this sort of thing; please check the help section or online manuals for assistance.

로그아웃할 때 터미널을 지우는 방법은요?
터미널을 지워야 한다면 스크립트에  를 추가하세요:

If you want this to happen automatically when you add a new user, do the same for the :

ReiserFS and filesystem corruption issues -- how to fix them, etc
If your ReiserFS partition is corrupt, try booting the Gentoo Install CD and run  on the corrupted filesystem. This should make the filesystem consistent again, although you may have lost some files or directories due to the corruption.

어디서 버그를 보고할 수 있죠?
Use our Bugzilla. If you are unsure if your problem is an actual bug, you can visit #gentoo on the Freenode IRC server.

새 릴리즈는 얼마나 자주 만드나요?
Gentoo's packages are usually updated shortly after the main authors release new code. As for when Gentoo itself makes new stage/profile/ISO releases, check our Release Engineering Project page. New releases are announced on the gentoo-announce mailing list. See this section for more information.

스피커 삑소리가 미친듯이 나요. 어떻게 콘솔 삑소리를 끄죠?
Console beeps can be turned off using setterm, like this:

If you would like to turn off the console beeps on boot, you need to put this command in. However, this only disables beeps for the current terminal. To disable beeps for other terminals, pipe the command output to the target terminal, like this:

You need to replace with the terminal you would like to disable console beeps for.

Where can I find more information about Gentoo Linux?
The official Gentoo documentation can be found at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/.

젠투 리눅스 CD를 살 수 있나요?
If you are not able to download and burn an installation CD yourself, you might find one through one of our licensed stores. However, most stores have dropped offering CDs and DVDs as these installation media quickly become obsolete.

You can find the licensed stores on our Get Gentoo! page.

FAQ에 제 질문에 대한 답이 없는데요. 뭘 해야하죠?
A good first step is to browse through the relevant documentation, failing that, the various Gentoo Linux mailing lists listed on Google. To search through the Gentoo mailing lists, just enter "site:lists.gentoo.org foo" to search for "foo".
