-        <h2>Gentoo</h2>
-            <p>
-                Gentoo is a bleeding edge <em>source based</em> distribution.
-                It provides only source code in its repositories, and the <em>portage</em>
-                package manager automatically compiles the source code for you
-                along with all dependencies, when installing packages. This makes
-                the distribution extremely configurable. It's common in Gentoo
-                to see 10, 20 or even 30 versions of the same package, with different
-                patches, and you can mix and match.
-            </p>
-            <p>
-                Gentoo has a page about libreboot (WARNING: not guaranteed to be
-                up to date with changes from libreboot or Gentoo itself):<br/>

-            <p>
-                Gentoo provides non-free software by default, but you can configure
-                the package manager when installing it, so that it doesn't let
-                you install non-free software. This way, you will end up with a 
-                completely free system.
-            </p>
-            <p>
-                Modify your <em>/etc/portage/make.conf</em> with the relevant license groups. See:
-                <a href="https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/License_Groups#Metasets">https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/License_Groups#Metasets</a>
-                - and <a href="https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki//etc/portage/make.conf#ACCEPT_LICENSE">https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki//etc/portage/make.conf#ACCEPT_LICENSE</a>
-                - configure the <em>ACCEPT_LICENSE</em> string accordingly. if you plan using <a href="https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Overlay">overlays</a> it is also 
-		recommended that apart from the FREE metaset, you also add GPL to the variable ACCEPT_LICENSE as in some overlays there are packages that define that
-		they are using the GPL license but not what version of the GPL They are using.
-            </p>
-            <p>
-                You also need to deblob your kernel: For that you need to add the
-deblob useflag in the USE variable at /etc/portage/make.conf see
-<a href="https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Installation_on_libreboot#Let_portage_remove_the_blobs">https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Installation_on_libreboot#Let_portage_remove_the_blobs</a>
-, so that when you install the source code of the kernel it is
-emerged without the blobs, however this will only work if your
-objective is to install the hardened-sources, ck-sources, or the
-rt-sources kernel, so if you plan to install any other kernel such as
-gentoo-sources (the recommended kernel by the Gentoo Project) or any
-other kernel listed at <a href="https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Kernel/Overview">https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Kernel/Overview</a>
-you have two options:</p>
-<ol>
-	<li>
-<p>Creating a local overlay (repository) with a modified copy
-	of your desired kernel’s ebuild so that the deblob useflag does
-	work in it (This may not work if you use the kernel git-sources, as
-	of git-sources unstable, inconsistent, bleeding-edge nature it may
-	work at some point and in other not, also pf-sources won’t work
-	with this method as its versioning classification does conflict with
-	Gentoo’s internal script for controlling the deblobbing proccess,
-	however if you want to mess with the script it is located inside the
-	file at /usr/portage/eclass/kernel-2.eclass). For this first create
-	a local overlay following the steps defined at
-	<a href="https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Overlay/Local_overlay">https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Overlay/Local_overlay</a>
-	, next create the directory of your kernel at
-	/usr/local/portage/sys-kernel/your-kernel-dir, after that copy the
-	ebuild of your desired kernel from
-	/usr/portage/sys-kernel/your-kernel-dir/your-kernel.ebuild to
-	usr/local/portage/sys-kernel/your-kernel-dir/your-kernel.ebuild,
-	then open it in an editor and add a line with K_DEBLOB_AVAILABLE=”1”
-	between the variable EAPI and the line inherit kernel-2, and finally
-	run with root permissions the command <b>ebuild
-	/usr/local/portage/sys-kernel/your-kernel-dir/your-kernel.ebuild
-	manifest</b> <span style="font-weight: normal">; after that if you
-	had already added </span><b>deblob</b> <span style="font-weight: normal">to
-	your useflags you can continue with the kernel installation as you
-	normally would.</span></p>
-	</li><li>
-<p>Adding an exception to the licences that are accepted for
-	your desired kernel so that portage allows installing the source
-	code of your desired kernel even if it has blobs, and after that
-	applying the linux-libre deblob scripts by yourself and by doing so
-	removing the blobs. For this first create a file in
-	/etc/portage/package.license with the following content
-	<b>sys-kernel/your-kernel-sources freedist</b> <span style="font-weight: normal">,
-	next emerge (install) the source code of your kernel with portage,
-	after that go to /usr/src/linux and download the proper </span><b>deblob-check</b> <span style="font-weight: normal">
-	and </span><b>deblob-version</b> <span style="font-weight: normal"> scripts for your kernel version from
-	<a href="http://www.fsfla.org/svn/fsfla/software/linux-libre/releases/tags/">http://www.fsfla.org/svn/fsfla/software/linux-libre/releases/tags/</a>,
-	then make them executable, and finally set the </span><b>EPYTHON</b>
-	<span style="font-weight: normal">variable to python2.7 and execute
-	with root permissions the script </span><b>deblob-version</b> <span style="font-weight: normal">; after that continue
-	with the kernel installation as you normally would. </span>
-	</p>
-</li></ol>
-<p><span style="font-weight: normal">It is also possible to install
-the  linux-libre sources following the ins</span><span style="font-weight: normal">tructions
-at
-<a href="https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Installation_on_libreboot#Use_linux-libre_sources">https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Installation_on_libreboot#Use_linux-libre_sources</a></span>
-however this is not recommended as portage would not be able to
-manage it.</p>
