Thanks for the quick demo... I was impressed enough that I decided that
I would try a parallel install... wnt home and started rooting around my
partition tables to see what I could wack to get a base install up and
running... I found that I had 4 or 5 partitions I COMPLETELY FORGOT
about... hurmph... that's the bad thing with having a couple of
hundred G lying around ;-)

Anyway, as soon as I snag my floppy drive back from fixing my mom's new
machine I'll come play with gnetoo.

Thanks Gontran for the demo ;-)
