I installed Gentoo on my iBook G4, because it was much more up-to-date than Debian three monthes ago - the stable Debian release wouldn't even install due to the HD being on hdc... I'm quite happy with it and noticed that emerging packages, even if it takes some time, is not a big problem once the system is installed. I just "emerge xyz &>log &" :) -- Colin Ne disez pas disez, mais disez dites
