There were gaping holes in linux's abilities in the past. These

relic of the Windows era.
Lately I've been shopping around for other distros as well as looking
at *BSD. Gentoo development seems to have slowed way down and I like
things being improved as quickly as possible. FreeBSD is supposed to

What does everyone else think about this. Is portage a major blocker

As said above, details are major blockers of progress.
Can you elaborate on this? Do you just mean that there are many small
things that are blocking Gentoo's progress?

I want to add a grub menu entry that will load the system without
starting gdm, just like the livecd does when the 'nox' kernel parameter is
passed. I poked around the CD a bit to figure out how that's done but
failed. Does the kernel have to be modified to do this? Thanks for any
pointers.

Hi,
I'm going to install gentoo on a new PC with an AMD Phenom in it.
I already read http://gentoo-wiki.com/Safe_Cflags but am not sure what to use.
The Phenom has four cores and SSE, SSE2, SSE3 and SSE4a support.
Any hints?
