yea it would be like installing gentoo at an installfest. however if somebody brought in a gentoo or linux from scratch box and just had some questions about it i'm sure one of us could help them out. i'd love to install gentoo on a box but they would have to bring it in at 10 am and not expect anything beyond command line interface before 6. unless it was a pentium 4 stage 3 install and everything taken off of the cd. even then when i install slackware or something easy like mandrake or fedora at an installfest it usually takes a very long time. seems like they always have something they need done like dual booting and the like. i remember from the asulug fest they guy wanted 4 or 5 distributions on his computer. i still don't understand that one. speaking of linux from scratch i'd like to get into that. anybody here have any experience before i go digging into yet another project. I assume mr wultsch does. mike h Rob Wultsch wrote: >On Thu, 2 Dec 2004 17:23:03 -0700, Mikey Haven s wrote: > > >>Hey, why don't we do linux from scratch instead of distributions at >>installfests? >> >> > >Because it would take forever and people at installfests are newbies >that would be completely lost >-------------------------------------------- >Rob Wultsch >(480)951-3169 >wultsch@gmail.com >wultsch (aim) >msftisevil@hotmail.com (msn) >--------------------------------------------------- >PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us >To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: >http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss > > > --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
