You beat me by  6 mth .  I had recently built my 2nd machine
& had been using Mandrake in the 1st, but they were slow with their release.
I tried Suse + Slackware, but couldn't get them set up properly,
so I thought I might as well try that new thing people were talking about.
I followed the install instructions faithfully, booted
& found myself with a working version of Gentoo !  I've never looked back.

I still have the original CDs for Mandrake from 2000, my 1st Linux,
but I've never tried installing them again anywhere.
