Thanks, what i find funny about gentoo is that the install seems so "unuserfriendly" but once you get it working, its easier to use than mandrake.

I find it easier to use than redhat, because even though its CLI, the tools actually work!

It does take a little longer than Mandrake

due to the compiling etc, but the feel of installing and customising distro can't be denied....

After the first stage1 install I borked mine several days later being over-confident. It's a walk in the park the second time

Gentoo Rocks!

Congratulations. I find the hardest part for me is keeping my experimenting with it to a minimum but that's a good problem. :wink:
