Gentoo Install Help Please
 
First off is there a gentoo installer gui?

I have an iMac G3 and a PowerMac G5, I am having problems installing on the G3 and I dont want to install on the G5 until then but does anyone here use gentoo on thier G5, if so let me know how it is :)

What is a good mac partition scheme for gentoo ? I have a 20GB HD on my G3


The problem with the iMac G3 is that once i get to copying the distfiles it gives me a hard drive is full error and i can proceed. I know i have mroe space cause i have a 80GB root partition a 512MB swap and a 800k apple bootstrap

let me know what im doing wrong thanks!

go to gentoo.org and click on Installation Docs. There are very detailed instructions towalk you through it. ALso, the gentoo forums are very helpful. Here's the links:

sounds like you are not providing enough space on your partitions, if you tell us about the available hardware we can suggest a partition layout for you.
