As long as you have space for Gentoo you can do basically everything you need inside the chroot, without ever needing to reboot. You should easily be able to install and configure all the services you need. The major exception will be services which depend on certain kernel features being available, but if Gentoo is going to be doing the same job as RH then that functionality might already be satisfied by the RH kernel (I wouldn't count on it though) - -- Mike Williams -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/oFCFInuLMrk7bIwRAohdAKCZwD+GD8VGSHyaRR7wgPznbDmlYACaAs8F 3HW9Yrr89LWxKJmj4FpzpLs= =oQub -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
