Aloha !!!

With tears im my eye (Im a real Gentoo freak) I have to admid you should not use Gentoo for this.
That is.... if you are just a simple home user...

Gentoo is wayyyyyyyyyyy to big to act as a simple firewall. Installing maintaining is to much work..
What you should do is this :

Take a 80486 with 64 Mb of RAM, and a 150Mb (or more) IDE HD and go to :

www.ipcop.org

Don't forget to install the updates....

PS: IPCop 1.4 is comming....
