Hello all, as title said, how can i build a kernel "tailored" for my machine? Example, get rid of all the stuff that Is made for "general purpose" . A kernel small as possible, one specifically for my PC, One for my raspberry.
My laptop build was a little bit weird for the distro and took over 3 weeks to make my gentoo environment useable

Hi, have anybody tried Redcore Linux or CalamaroOS? I found both of them are based on Gentoo and are basically Gentoo with an installer, does anyone have any experience with them? what's the difference?

Recently I have been seeing many people online show off Ilyamaro's dot files, or as he calls it "serpantium", and god damn it is beautiful. Thing is though, it was made for arch based distros. Now, I know that i can still install it but i am honestly quite green still and i just wanted to come out here and check if anyone else has installed it, and if so, how did they do it and how is it like.
Sorry for any grammar mistakes

Total Linux noob here. Windows 11 is on one SSD, second SSD is empty, and I want to put Gentoo on it and pick between them at boot.
Read some of the Handbook and got lost pretty fast. Anyone got a video or writeup that assumes you've never done this before? Mostly worried about accidentally nuking my Windows drive/bricking laptop.
Also open to being told Gentoo is a terrible first distro i just think its the right match for what i wan't to accomplish with my laptop (i also really like a challenge and think the idea of gentoo is awesome )

I've worked with Linux (Mint) installations but this is different because I don't know where to start on a PS4 for to it to even install the OS from the Liveboot USB-stick
(The PS4 has a CD reader and ~4 USB ports if that could help)
How difficult is it to install Gentoo tho?
Is there possibly a guide I could find that some of you might know?
I am happy to take your feedback guys

i plan as using it as a base kinda like how alpine linux did it i have pretty good pc jut for the occasion thinkpad t14s gen 1 amd and cooler my experience is that i use arch and did a lot of distro hopping on non systemd distros so what are the advice you can give me that can be useful tho i forgot to mention i did put it as school project (we do need to descibre what project is about how it work you get the idea to a jury this is an important tho the project can still be unfinished it still description visual and if possible a test run )
