#...and there we hit the end of the gentoo installation portion of witchcraft
#job done.  what's next... u want the deskfigselector() now dont you?
#good, cos it should already be lined up to run, thnx to the stage3 function (as a top level option from cauldren), which calls it straight after running the distroselector function.
#first you get run the witchcraft, thn you choose the cauldren, then you choose a proper stage3 install, then you get the distro, then you get the desktop.  ^_^
#... is how this path rolls.  ^_^
