##Installation

Preparing to run mkstage4 from its own directory:
|

The script can be run directly from its containing folder (and thus, is installed simply by downloading or cloning it from here - and adding run permissions):
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/TheChymera/mkstage4.git /your/mkstage4/directory

For [Gentoo Linux](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gentoo_linux) and [Derivatives](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Gentoo_Linux_derivatives), mkstage4 is also available for [Portage](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portage_(software)) via the *[chymerc overlay](https://github.com/TheChymera/chymeric)* (which can be enabled with just two commands, as seen in [the README](https://github.com/TheChymera/chymeric)).
|
||||
After you have enabled the overlay, just run the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
emerge app-backup/mkstage4
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
##Usage
|
||||
|
||||
*If you are running the script from the containing foler (first install method) please make sure you use the `./mkstage4.sh` command instead of just `mkstage4`!*
