 When you install entropy you'll miss some vital portage bits, namely the /etc/portage/* files used to build the sabayon packages.

 This HOWTO brings the gentoo installation method (as in the Handbook) to Sabayon.
-Please note that "an existing Linux system" '''MUST''' be an installed system (then you cannot use that partition for sabayon). From a live system it doesn't work yet (equo rescue generate will generate nothing), but will work soon (a fix will be included in entropy).
