I'm not a very experienced Linux user, I've been using FreeBSD for longer. At work I keep a subtree of a gentoo kernel-2.4/glibc-2.3 which I do not update for chroot whenever I need to compile things for a 2.4 kernel. Do you (anyone?) have any hints on the less inconvenient way to run glibc-2.2.5 programs on Gentoo? -- Miguel Ramos <2...@miguel.ramos.name> GnuPG ID 0xA006A14C
