Doesn't using NFS slow compilation right down. I have a script on the build host that enters the chroot and runs emerge -uD --changed-use world, right after cron does emerge --sync, so the packages are automatically available. Ass --usepkg to EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS on the netbook and everything is transparent and no work at all (apart from a couple of packages that won't build in the chroot). -- Neil Bothwick Beware of cover disks bearing upgrades.
