To quote another contributor to this thread. "I feel like I'm

Why bother doing any of the above? It's all done for you already in

If you are seriously going to persist with the argument that Gentoo
is faster to install than Ubuntu, then there's basically no hope for
the discussion, as you're clearly in cloud-cuckoo land.
