Yeah, that and the Gentoo wiki have gotten me past most major hurdles.
I think another answer is that much of what is covered by the HowTos is now built into the distros themselves; there's no need to learn X Y and Z if you want to do T, as you just select the "LAMP STACK" option in the distro installer.
Yeah - I just set up Gentoo for the first time, and the wiki is _excellent_.
I had this preconception that Gentoo was ‘complicated’, but the excellent documentation has made everything easy (and I’m coming round to the opinion that Gentoo is actually easier because how it works is so ‘transparent’).
