Dear list,
I posted this on gentoo forums but maybe you guys could help me out as
well. So I wanted to play around with building my own diskless node.
Yes, I know there are easier ways to do this. Automated tools like
Caos Linux, etc. etc. Anyway, I wanted to use gentoo and learn from

pxelinux.cfg is this:
DEFAULT /kernel8
APPEND root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=192.168.2.1:/diskless/192.168.2.11
init=sbin/init
Add ip=dhcp to APPEND so that the kernel does DHCP again for an IP.
Otherwise
it might not be connected to the network when it boots and be unable

i used gentoo to run off vmware fusion on an intel mac. saved me a lot
of headache. it works. i use it as a development/test bed.

I've been googling for info on running Linux on a Mac Mini, and
my style has always been to get the minimal installer. chroot, install

the handbook is pretty specific and straight-forward. one just has to
follow it. i've done N installs over the years and i still
back in the day, this was why i went gentoo in the first place. i
needed a better scheduler and compiling a new kernel off red hat for
instance almost always broke other stuff.
gentoo made my life easier.

hi everyone.
So the family computer at home is my old amd64 running gentoo. mostly
people in the house use it to just check their mail, browse youtube
and play online flash games. i have firefox-bin and firefox 64
installed. it's been running that for years on end. now all of a

First guess, -bin is using IPv6, check about:config
yep it was toggled after all.
Install nspluginwrapper, which makes 32 bit plugins work with a 64 bit
browser.
i've emerged nspluginwrapper. i won't be using 32-bit firefox

Take an Ubuntu, Knoppix or similar live cd, just add these three

However, if it's a data cd, then iso9660 MUST either be build into

If it says

yep. it is built into the kernel. so auto should work, correct?
