Hi Gentoo-users,

I have read all articles about Raspberry Pi on Gentoo-wiki,
but want to ask: Is anybody here really using Gentoo on RPi?
Is it usable?

I have a chance of free housing for my RPi so I thought I give
it a try, using RPi as backup-DNS/MX (and watchdog) for my
primary server. Right now I'm facing two questions:

1. What is better to use as OS-storage: USB-stick or SD-card?
I have read horror stories about SD-cards being fried/bricked
quite frequently so I'm a little scared. But I never found
single post about problems with USB-stick...

2. What distro? Right now I'm using Gentoo on all my servers
but I'm not sure it is the best option for this puppy (Gentoo
puts quite high demands on filesystem). If I redirect all the
compilation work to other "mature" server (distcc/crossdev),
can I use even Gentoo? Or is Raspbian still the better choice?

BR,
Jarry
