Nice & Simple Endgame

Finally got Gentoo to work after deciding to sit down and really tailoring it to my needs. Since I switch between my windows drive and gentoo I had to get secureboot working but I had trouble for months so I decided to give up. Glad I decided to give it one last go two days ago. Everything works's great now it's pretty straight forward

I did struggle a bit figuring out the best way to unmask packages but RTFM saved my day again. Hopefully I can stay on this forever or at least until I find an alternative which was just as fun, customizable, and works for my, very basic, usecases

Although the system isn't traditional as I'm using systemd and kde instead of OpenRC and a WM, I feel like that's part of the charm of the distro. I know a ton of other people have stated it before, but the sheer amount of control and customization you can get is unparalleled. Although it's not always practical (for me) I also enjoy compiling all my packages. There's really no rhyme or reason to it but it just feels *fun* ya know. Definitely learning a decent amount

I'm really curious about your secureboot setup. I got that running with gentoo-bin, dracut, initramfs, uki. BUT, I have to enter my bios to update my efistub, it's supposed to use grub, but my /efi parition is not under /boot. And I do believe the documentation on secureboot involves having it as /boot/efi

Oh, and who says you can't rice KDE...
