gentoo

I'm googling for a while about how can I install Gentoo on Virtual Box. The hand book provides less information about installing it on virtual box rather on a real partition.

I thought there will be a GUI tool to install Gentoo. [Now I think there is not :(]

Whenever I'm booting into gentoo Im going into a LiveDVD environment where fdisk returning "command not found !" (Not sure this is a bug or Im using a wronng command)

Now Im not a very exprienced user but do like to learn and play with Gentoo. Any help link will be appriciated.

I have a iMac G5 only with Gentoo installed on it and every time I turn it on, it plays the startup chime. I already have my headset plugged in but this doesn't mute the sound. Is there a way to turn it off using the Open Firmware or, if this isn't possible, could a script do this ? >>> More
