i was planning on covering emerge extensively in its own wiki page...from the simple stuff like emerge -p to emerge --oneshot --nodeps .......i was really thinking of this guide as a newbie's intro to using portage, just the basics to get 'em going
i will have to read over it a few times and try to correct the areas i've repaeted myself (bad habit

)
I also plan on putting in a little something about the distfiles directory and the fact it needcs to cleaned out every once-in-a-while....I remember when i started using gentoo and freakijng out 6 mo. later because i was outta disk space

and i'd like to make sure nobody else has to deal with that little experience
aside from that, anything else?
