I can bring "Beast" if you want. What would you like it for?


A distcc demo. We have 2 half built Gentoo boxes to finish off and I just
thought that folks might find that the concept interesting.


which boxes are still half finished? are these left over from robert's
garage?


Yes, Rik and Leo.
"half built" should be interpreted as meaning "still have more work to do",

Rik: Please could you confirm that you are still interested in running Gentoo.

Yes, very much so.

I got as far as "#emerge sync" (1.5 hrs on dialup) but didn't go on to emerge portage at the time. So both these tasks would be better (re)done on a faster network link. Then I'd be tackling why X only runs as root - insecure & unacceptable at the point at which I stopped using Gentoo.

Thanks for asking - v.keen

Rik
