+===== Installation =====
+See [[Local Portage Mirror]] for instructions on setting up machines to use the local portage mirror for syncing the portage tree, and downloading cached source packages.
+===== Installation =====
+==== Kernel ====
+See [[Kernel problems]].
+Full kernel <tt>.config</tt> files are stored in subversion, under [[https://dev.sihnon.net/svnpriv/configs/kernel/river|configs:/kernel/river/]].
+Compile the kernel using <tt>genkernel</tt>, which will set up an initramfs supporting LVM and framebuffer splashes:
+{{Root|<code>0@@</code>}}
+{{Kernel|2.6.28-gentoo-r1|<code>1@@</code>}}
+==== Framebuffer ====
+See [[Framebuffer]] for steps to set up a high resolution framebuffer.
+==== Portage ====
+River will be set up to use some third-party overlays to the official Portage tree, as there are often packages that are too new or rare to be in the official tree. Layman is used to manage the overlays, and needs to be built with git and subversion support to be able to download certain overlays.
+Install the following packages:
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|dev-util/git}}
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|dev-util/subversion}} USE="{{USEFlag|{{EnableFlag|subversion}}}}"
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|app-portage/layman}} USE="{{USEFlag|{{EnableFlag|git subversion}}}}"
+Now configure layman to download the desired overlays
+{{Root|<code>2@@</code>}}
+Now configure portage to look in the overlay directories
+{{File|/etc/make.conf|<code>3@@</code>}}
+Next, update all the software on the system using:
+{{Root|<source lang="bash">
+emerge world -uDNav
+</source>}}
+==== Installed software ====

+  * [[Gentoo#Essential packages]]
+=== System ===
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|sys-fs/reiserfsprogs}}
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|sys-kernel/genkernel}}
+=== Modules ===
+The following packages build kernel modules against the current kernel source tree, and will need to be updated following every kernel upgrade:
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|app-emulation/vmware-modules}}
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|app-misc/lirc}}
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|sys-block/open-iscsi}}
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|sys-block/iscsitarget}}
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers}} [[sabayon]]
+Install {{Package|direct=yes|sys-kernel/module-rebuild}} and populate the list of modules that need to be rebuilt with:
+{{Root|<source lang="bash">
+module-rebuild populate
+</source>}}
+Then rebuild the kernel-dependent packages after an upgrade with the following command:
+{{Root|<source lang="bash">
+module-rebuild -X rebuild -- -av
+</source>}}
+=== Networking ===
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|net-misc/bridge-utils}}
+=== Desktop Environments ===

+==== ALSA ====
+Use the in-kernel drivers, and install the following packages:
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|media-lib/alsa-lib}}
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|media-plugins/alsa-plugins}}
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|media-sound/alsa-tools}} ALSA_CARDS="emu10k1"
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|media-sound/alsa-utils}}
+River has three soundcards, and these should be loaded in the correct order:
+  * Creative Soundblaster Audigy 2 (snd_emu10k1)
+  * Realtek HDA (snd_intel_hda)
+  * Logitech webcam microphone (snd_usb_audio)
+To achieve this, configure alsa with the following file:
+{{File|/etc/modprobe.d/alsa|<syntax lang="modconf">
+alias char-major-116 snd
+alias char-major-14 soundcore
+  - Audigy
+alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1

+</syntax>}}
+==== VMWare Server ====
+Install the following packages
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|app-emulation/vmware-server}}
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|app-emulation/vmware-modules}}
+Run the <tt>vmware-config</tt> script to compile the proper modules and configure the networking. Set up the network as follows:
+  * vmnet0
+    * name: public
+    * type: bridged
+    * bridged to: eth0
+  * vmnet2
+    * name: local
+    * type: bridged
+    * bridged to: br1
+Once the web interface is started, use it to remove the default datastore created by the installed, and add a new datastore named <tt>vms</tt> pointing at <tt>/mnt/pool/virtualmachines</tt>.
+Install the following packages to be able to connect to pipes mapped to virtual serial ports:
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|socat}}
+  * {{Package|direct=yes|taylor-uucp}}
+==== NX ====
+By default, NX looks in the wrong place for ssh keys. Fix this by editing the configuration file to contain the following:
+{{File|/usr/NX/etc/server/.cfg|<syntax lang="cfg">
+SSHAuthorizedKeys = "authorized_keys"
+</syntax>}}
+Then start NX, and ensure it autostarts on boot:
+{{Root|<source lang="bash">
+/etc/init.d/nxserver start
+rc-update add nxserver default
+</source>}}
