migrate from base gentoo

Hi,
I would like to migrate from based gentoo installed system to calculate CLDG system. Is there a wiki for that ?
Thanks,
Ruddy32

Hi Ruddy,

On the wiki migration guide no. Typically the system is installed from the image.
If I am not mistaken, that’s all the steps that are required to move to Calculate:

# emerge layman
layman -a calculate
connect the overlay
# eselect profile set 19
choose a binary profile CLDG (list of profiles can be viewed by running ‘eselect profile list’)
# emerge calculate-utilities
install Calculate Utility
# cl-setup-system
configure the system
# cp /var/lib/portage/world /var/lib/portage/world.back
cl-update --rebuild-world
cat /var/lib/portage/world.back >> /var/lib/portage/world
create a list of packages CLDG and join it with your packages
# emerge -uDNa world
install the missing programs

Before, I was doing it on Gentoo remotely. But that was long ago. Currently migration has become easier. But I did not check how it works.

Thanks. It works fine.
It’s necessary to check /boot partition size before upgrading.

eselect python set 1 ( python2.7 )

# emerge calculate-utilities
install Calculate Utility
# cl-setup-system
configure the system
# cp /var/lib/portage/world /var/lib/portage/world.back
cl-update --rebuild-world
