 recommended, but legacy BIOS boot is also supported. The script supports both systemd (default)
 and OpenRC as the init system. The main performed steps are:

-#. Download & verify stage3 tarball
-#. Extract stage3
-#. Initialize portage
-#. Install kernel
-#. Install additional software

 The system will use `sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin`, which should be suitable
 to boot most systems out of the box. I strongly recommend you to replace this kernel

 Here is a more complete overview of what this script does:
 
-#. Partition disks (supports gpt, raid, luks)
-#. Download and cryptographically verify the newest stage3 tarball
-#. Extract the stage3 tarball
-#. Sync portage tree
-#. Configure portage (create zz-autounmask files, configure MAKEOPTS, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS)
-#. Select the fastest gentoo mirrors
-#. Configure the base system
-#. Install git (so you can add your portage overlays later)
-#. Install `sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin` (until you replace it)
-#. Create efibootmgr entry or install syslinux depending on whether your system uses EFI
-#. Generate a basic fstab
-#. Ask for a root password
