Just a thought doesnt the 1.4-rc4 have distcc on it as well ???and it is a 
running install once booted off ...even if you have a current install all you 
have to do is use the gentoo live cd on any spare machines and all should be 
well ......setup networking , mount a disk somewhere to save the distcc conf 
to and all go , would be good if a few had windows boxes etc at home they 
didnt want to install on as the could still use them in the compile farm 
.....also burning ~120mb images as opposed to 600mb images has to be quicker 
;-)

Cheers
Dale.
