is there support by gentoo for this? Or anywhere else (even another distro?). hes looking to get into linux, but the only way hes going to get a network connection is through a firewire connecition (to his Windows PC, which has a wireless connection). Anybody know any resources for this? or if its possible?

The kernel has firewire networking support, I have no idea how you use it though.
