   Unless this "minimal CD" was really shrunk manually after portage   
   installation, "man emerge" should show you the manpage.   
   Anyway, the message is a bit unfortunate IMHO.   
   It means essentially that you should run one of the tools   
     etc-update, dispatch-conf, cfg-update, conf-update, etc-proposals   
   which all do the same (with an increasing order of automatism/complexity):   
   They allow you to semi-manually update the config-files to the new ones   
   (which are currently stored under the names .__cfg* in your system).
