genkernel.xml doc says it's invalid
Hi,
Searched google for genkernel and got this page:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/genkernel.xml

On the top of the page there is a message that says:
Disclaimer : This document is not valid and is not maintained anymore.

Is it possible to update this message to refer me to an updated genkernel
doc?

Regards,
Kfir

See the thread started by sping back on Dec 6. Here's the gmane permalink:

[PATCH] Corrections to doc/en/genkernel.xml

http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.documentation/3076

The bottom line is that it's a known issue that's being addressed. That
patch was one bit, but as the thread exchange makes clear, there are
further changes that need made before it's ready for the disclaimer to
come off.

There is no such update version as of yet.

If you are looking for a complete list of command line options of
genkernel, either `genkernel --help` or [1] are probably your best
sources right now.

If you make any patches against [1] please share them with us at
<genkernel@g.o.>. Thanks!

Best,



Sebastian
