-## Legacy method: using foundry script
-
-The following guide shows you how to generate the L2 genesis file `genesis.json`. This is a JSON
-file that represents the L2 genesis. You will provide this file to the
-execution client (op-geth) to initialize your network. There is also the rollup configuration file, `rollup.json`, which will be
-provided to the consensus client (op-node).
-
-
- The following genesis creation information is the legacy method for creating OP Stack configuration files.
- This method is not recommended. It's preserved here for historical context.
-
-
-
-### Solidity script (Legacy)
-
-You can also use the foundry script
-located in the monorepo to generate an "L2 state dump" and then pass this into the op-node genesis subcommand.
-The foundry script can be found at
-[packages/contracts-bedrock/scripts/L2Genesis.s.sol](https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/optimism/blob/develop/packages/contracts-bedrock/scripts/L2Genesis.s.sol).
-
-
-When generating the genesis file, please use the same `op-contracts/vX.Y.Z` release commit used for L1 contract deployments.
-
-
-### Configuration
-
-Create or modify a file `.json` inside the `deploy-config`
-folder in the monorepo. The script will read the latest active fork from the
-deploy config and the L2 genesis allocs generated will be compatible with this
-fork. The automatically detected fork can be overwritten by setting the
-environment variable `FORK` either to the lower-case fork name (currently
-`delta`, `ecotone`, or `fjord`) or to `latest`, which will select the latest fork
-available (currently `fjord`).
-
-By default, the script will dump the L2 genesis allocs (aka "state dump") of the detected or
-selected fork only, to the file at `STATE_DUMP_PATH`. The optional environment
-variable `OUTPUT_MODE` allows you to modify this behavior by setting it to one of
-the following values:
-
-* `latest` (default) - only dump the selected fork's allocs.
-* `all` - also dump all intermediary fork's allocs. This only works if
- `STATE_DUMP_PATH` is not set. In this case, all allocs will be written to files
- `/state-dump-.json`. Another path cannot currently be specified for this
- use case.
-* `none` - won't dump any allocs. Only makes sense for internal test usage.
-
-### Creation
-
-* `CONTRACT_ADDRESSES_PATH` represents the deployment artifact that was
- generated during a contract deployment.
-* `DEPLOY_CONFIG_PATH` represents a path on the filesystem that points to a
- deployment config. The same deploy config JSON file should be used for L1 contracts
- deployment as when generating the L2 genesis allocs.
-* `STATE_DUMP_PATH` represents the filepath at which the allocs will be
- written to on disk.
-
-```bash
-CONTRACT_ADDRESSES_PATH= \
-DEPLOY_CONFIG_PATH= \
-STATE_DUMP_PATH= \
- forge script scripts/L2Genesis.s.sol:L2Genesis \
- --sig 'runWithStateDump()'
- ```
-
-## Subcommand (op-node genesis l2)
-
-The genesis file creation is handled by the `genesis l2`
-subcommand, provided by the `op-node`. The following is an example of its usage
-from [v1.7.6](https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/optimism/releases/tag/v1.7.6) --
-note that you need to pass the path to the l2 genesis state dump file output by
-the foundry script above:
-
-```bash
-go run cmd/main.go genesis l2 \
- --deploy-config= \
- --l1-deployments= \
- --l2-allocs= \
- --outfile.l2= \
- --outfile.rollup= \
- --l1-rpc=>
-```
