Vítejte
Ze všeho nejdříve: Vítejte v Gentoo. Vstupujete do světa možností a výkonu. Gentoo, to jsou samé možnosti. Při instalaci Gentoo to vyjde několikrát najevo - uživatelé si mohou zvolit jak moc chtějí sami kompilovat, jak instalovat Gentoo, jaký systémový logger používat atd.

Gentoo je rychlá moderní meta distribuce s čistým a flexibilním návrhem. Gentoo je postaveno na svobodném softwaru a neskrývá před uživatele, co se nachází pod kapotou. Portage, správce balíčků použitý v Gentoo, je napsaný v Pythonu, uživatel tedy může snadno nahlédnout a měnit jeho zdrojový kód. Balíčkovací systém Gentoo používá zdrojové kódy (ačkoli podpory předkompilovaných balíčků je v něm také) a Gentoo se nastavuje skrze běžné textové soubory- Jinými slovy: otevřenost sama.

Je důležité, aby každý chápal, že Gentoo funguje díky možnosti volby. Nesnažíme se nutit uživatele k ničemu, co se jim nelíbí. Jestliže má někdo opačný pocit, ať nahlásí chybu.

How is the installation structured
The Gentoo Installation can be seen as a 10-step procedure, corresponding to the next set of chapters. Every step results in a certain state:
 * 1) After step 1, the user is in a working environment ready to install Gentoo
 * 2) After step 2, the Internet connection is ready to install Gentoo
 * 3) After step 3, the hard disks are initialized to host the Gentoo installation
 * 4) After step 4, the installation environment is prepared and the user is ready to chroot into the new environment
 * 5) After step 5, core packages, which are the same on all Gentoo installations, are installed
 * 6) After step 6, the Linux kernel is installed
 * 7) After step 7, the user will have configured most of the Gentoo system configuration files
 * 8) After step 8, the necessary system tools are installed
 * 9) After step 9, the proper boot loader has been installed and configured
 * 10) After step 10, the freshly installed Gentoo Linux environment is ready to be explored

Whenever a certain choice is presented, the handbook will try to explain what the pros and cons are. Although the text then continues with a default choice (identified by "Default: " in the title), the other possibilities will be documented as well (marked by "Alternative: " in the title). Do not think that the default is what Gentoo recommends. It is however what Gentoo believes most users will use.

Sometimes an optional step can be followed. Such steps are marked as "Optional: " and are therefore not needed to install Gentoo. However, some optional steps are dependent on a previous decision made. The instructions will inform the reader when this happens, both when the decision is made, and right before the optional step is described.

What are the options
Gentoo can be installed in many different ways. It can be downloaded and installed from one of Gentoo's Installation CDs, from a distribution already installed, from a non-Gentoo bootable CD (such as Knoppix), from a netbooted environment, from a rescue floppy, etc.

This document covers the installation using a Gentoo Installation CD or, in certain cases, netbooting.

We also provide a Gentoo Installation Tips & Tricks document that might be useful to read as well.

Troubles
If a problem is found in the installation (or in the installation documentation), please visit our bugtracking system and check if the bug is known. If not, please create a bugreport for it so we can take care of it. Do not be afraid of the developers who are assigned to the bugs -- they (generally) don't eat people.

Note though that, although this document is architecture-specific, it might contain references to other architectures as well. This is due to the fact that large parts of the Gentoo Handbook use source code that is common for all architectures (to avoid duplication of efforts and starvation of development resources). We will try to keep this to a minimum to avoid confusion.

If there is some uncertainty whether or not the problem is a user-problem (some error made despite having read the documentation carefully) or a software-problem (some error we made despite having tested the installation/documentation carefully) everybody is welcome to join #gentoo on irc.freenode.net. Of course, everyone is welcome otherwise too as our chat channel covers the broad Gentoo spectrum.

Speaking of which, if there are any additional questions regarding Gentoo, check out our Frequently Asked Questions, available from the Gentoo Wiki. There are also FAQs on the Gentoo Forums.
