I would think that the ability and willingness to read instructions is a prerequisite to running a gentoo system. And it should be non-negotiable, much like the ability and willingness to read is a prerequisite for a university education. I fundamentally disagree with with the whole idea of a noob-proof gui installer for gentoo. That's ubuntu's province and they are very good at it. Gentoo caters to a different market. I'm not being elitist, I'm being pragmatic. alan -- Optimists say the glass is half full, Pessimists say the glass is half empty, Developers say wtf is the glass twice as big as it needs to be?
