No need for an extra user that early in the install. You can login as root. You have to be root to do the setup stuff anyways. If you really want a "predictable interface name", remember to type... gentoo net.ifnames=0 ...immediately when the Gentoo CD or USB key boots up. I predict that it'll come up as eth0 if you do that. <G> -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
