<p>
As with every major project Gentoo has a FAQ too. We have first and foremost
a couple of official FAQs maintained by the Gentoo Documentation Project:
</p>

<ul>
<li>The <b><uri link="faq.xml">Gentoo FAQ</uri></b> answers Frequently Asked Questions
about Gentoo Linux with focus on x86 platforms.</li>
<li>The <b><uri link="gentoo-ppc-faq.xml">Gentoo PPC FAQ</uri></b> answers Frequently

<title>Gentoo Handbook</title>
<body>

<p>
The Gentoo Documentation Project has started with the <uri
link="handbook/">Gentoo Handbook</uri> development. Currently, the
first two parts (<uri link="handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1">Installing 
Gentoo</uri> and <uri link="handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=2">Working with
Gentoo</uri>) are finished and have reached the "official" stage. Users are 
encouraged to use the installation instructions from the Handbook and <uri
link="http://bugs.gentoo.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Docs-user">bug</uri> us with
their experience (please use the <e>Handbook</e> component).
</p>

<p>
More information can be found on the <uri link="handbook/">Gentoo
Handbook Effort</uri> homepage.

<chapter>
<title>Installation Related Resources</title>
<section>
<title>Introduction</title>
<body>

<p>
The installation related documentation provides information that can be usefull 
during the installation of Gentoo Linux. This includes the part on "Installing
Gentoo" in our Gentoo Handbook, as well as the older but still maintained 
architecture-related installation resources and tutorials that are to be 
followed during the installation.
</p>

</body>
</section>
<section>
<title>Installation Guides</title>
<body>

<p>
The first part of our <b><uri link="/doc/en/handbook/index.xml">Gentoo
Handbook</uri></b> explains how to install Gentoo on your system. Each
architecture-specific version contains instructions for all users.
</p>

<p>
For experienced users we also have Quick Installation Reference documents:
</p>

<ul>
  <li><b><uri link="gentoo-x86-quickinstall.xml">x86 Quick Installation Reference</uri></b></li>
  <li><b><uri link="gentoo-sparc-quickinstall.xml">Sparc Quick Installation Reference</uri></b></li>
</ul>

<p>
Alpha-users are probably also interested in our <b><uri
link="gentoo-alpha-compaq-tools.xml">Compaq Alpha Tools Guide</uri></b>, which
explains how to set up the Compaq Tools package for Gentoo Alpha users.
</p>

</body>
</section>
<section>
<title>Other Installation Related Documentation</title>
<body>

<p>
For some people, the installation guide above doesn't suffice since their 
environment doesn't permit them to boot from a LiveCD. To anticipate their 
environments we provide the <b><uri link="altinstall.xml">Alternative 
Installation Guide</uri></b> which lists the installation steps needed to install 
Gentoo from another medium (distribution, bootable CD, network boot, etc.).
</p>

<p>
Users interested in using LVM2 should read up our <b><uri link="lvm2.xml">LVM2
Guide</uri></b> which explains the steps required to get your LVM2 scheme up
and running.
</p>

<p>
As our installation instructions allow for great flexibility, there are many
tips and tricks that can be persued during the installation. We have a <b><uri
link="gentoo-x86-tipsntricks.xml">Gentoo/x86 Installation Tips 'n
Tricks</uri></b> document online (which also contains interesting Tips 'n Tricks
for other architectures).
</p>

<p>
The <b><uri link="new-upgrade-to-gentoo-1.4.xml">Gentoo Linux 1.4 Upgrade 
Guide</uri></b> explains how to upgrade your Gentoo Linux 1.x systems to
Gentoo Linux 1.4.
</p>

<p>
The <b><uri link="genkernel.xml">Genkernel Guide</uri></b> intends to provide a
reference of all the functions provided by genkernel.
</p>

<p>
With the help of our <b><uri link="colinux-howto.xml">coLinux HOWTO</uri></b>
you are able to run Gentoo from within Windows.

<title>Gentoo System Documentation</title>
<section>
<title>Introduction</title>
<body>

<p>
The Gentoo System Documentation contains several guides about what makes
Gentoo Gentoo. This includes our init-system, Portage, USE-flags etc. 
</p>

<p>
The Gentoo Handbook has a part on <uri
link="handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=2">Working with Gentoo</uri> which contains
information on Portage, USE flags, the Gentoo Init system and environment
variables.
</p>

The <b><uri link="handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=2&amp;chap=2">Portage and 
Software</uri></b> chapter in the Gentoo Handbook briefly covers how to keep 
your packages up to date and how to maintain your installed software. In other 
words, this chapter tells you how to use <c>emerge</c>.
</p>


<p>
The <b><uri link="portage-manual.xml">Portage Manual</uri></b> provides a general
overview of Portage, detailed configuration information and an end user guide
to installing and maintaining packages using the Portage system. It is
far more extended than the Portage User Guide.

chapter in the Gentoo Handbook introduces you to the ultimate
tool for customizing Gentoo -- USE flags. This howto helps you decide which
USE flags you need. It also describes the use of <c>etcat</c> to receive
more verbose information regarding USE-flags on a package.

cache easily.
</p>

<p>
The <b><uri link="handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=2&amp;chap=5">Initscripts</uri></b>
chapter in the Gentoo Handbook details our system
startup and service management scripts. Besides the regular
initscript-related items it also covers initscript dependencies and
