Configuration steps for enabling Linux compatibility, necessary for using Flash Player made for Linux. Work in progress, steps:

For custom, non-specific linux package and up to date setups, we may be able to do without the following packages: linux_base-f10, linux_base-c6, or linux_base-gentoo-stage3

/etc/

/etc/fstab

linproc         /compat/linux/proc    linprocfs  rw    0   0
#possibly the two below
fdesc           /dev/fd               fdescfs    rw    0   0
proc            /proc                 procfs     rw    0   0

/etc/rc.conf

linux_enable="YES"

/etc/devfs.conf

link /tmp shm

/compat/linux/

/compat/linux/ should have at least the following sub-directories: etc/ lib/ proc/ usr/

% cd /compat/linux/
% mkdir etc/ lib/ proc/ usr/

/compat/linux/etc/

domainname	mydomain.com  # this is your networks domain-name without localhost
ypserver	localhost  # my.yp.server

/compat/linux/etc/nsswitch.conf

passwd:     files nis
shadow:     files nis
group:      files nis
hosts:	    files nis dns
