=== Demo setup ===
Follow [https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Disks#Partitioning_the_disk_with_GPT_for_UEFI this] setup to test. I'd recommend playing with this in [https://www.virtualbox.org/ VirtualBox] because it is very difficult to change these on your filesystem.

{{Tip|I'd recommend playing with this in [https://www.virtualbox.org/ VirtualBox] because it is very difficult to change these on your filesystem once you have data on it. In fact, you destroy all data when running these commands, so you'd just move everything off the drives before doing this. It's a big pain.}}
