I'm using the Pentoo installer and it's asking me to select a profile.
I believe the "amd64" profile will compile software from source. The "binary" profile will instead use precompiled binaries created by the Pentoo developers. And the "bleeding_edge" option will compile from the upstream project? (i think)
My question is: **is there a wiki or manual (command line tool) I can view to better understand how Gentoo/Pentoo profiles work?** I'm looking for something that really details what each profile is and how it affects the OS.
