I am posting this to both gentoo-user and gentoo-ppc-user lists.
My problem concerns the installation of Gentoo Linux on my G4 iMac,
using the 2005.1 universal ppc disk.
I should first mention that I have done this before, using the 2005.0
disk, and there was no trouble whatsoever.

I've got a farm of 32-bit redhat 7 web servers that we're about to start

Sane defaults? Sounds a bit redundant to me. You will have
to tweak the kernel sources since your not using genkernel (my
experience with Redhat is minimal, I assume they use a type of
generic kernel?). There's no way around it. Short story, if you want sane defaults, stick with the genkernel.On

Answer to 1:
Yes, if you download a portage-timestamp.tar.bz2 file and uncompress
it on /usr/portage, it has the same effect as emerge --sync. Actually,
to be more precise, the same effect as emerge-webrsync. Unforunately,
this consumes more bandwidth, since it downloads ebuilds you don't
need to
It is also very useful on a office enviroment. Normally, on offices,
at least on my personal experiences, the entire staff is consuming
bandwidth during commercial hours. So you can use a cron job to
--fetchonly the packages you want from hours 21:00 to 06:00. Then on
the next day, all you have to
