The Neigbour's Kid #gentoo #linux Installation Adventure went well.
He went for a fully manul installation from the latest Gentoo kde live ISO.
I only had to help with the boot loader.
BIOS vs EFI as explained on the wiki was a bit confusing for him.
I told him to just copy the instructions over to a textfile and we went through it togeter.
Told him to just strip out everthing that's not about his specific setup and after that he easily spotted the step he missed the first time through.
He went for #systemd , #systemdboot , #btrfs and #kde
