OK, that is the attitude!
You are going to find plenty of help from the developers in our irc channel (inclusive while you are installing),  please meet us on:
channel: #gentoo-bsd
server: irc.freenode.net

I hope to see you soom in the channel ;-)

Anyway, I have tried the install twice, the second time doing the
"emerge -e system" before the kernel build, but I am getting stuck at
the same issue: I get TCP timeouts to some sites.  This is such a
bummer, and I am asking if anyone knows a solutuon.  I have seen some
other postings to this list that may be the same issue (packet mangling?).

Anyway, as an example, I can never FTP to www.astron.com (where the
"file" package, among other things, lives).  Even if I use wget or lynx
to do an FTP connection, it simply hangs.  I *can* get to this site
using Windows, Linux, and regular FreeBSD (non-Gentoo) from the same
machine and on the same network, so it has to be something to do with
Gentoo/FreeBSD in particular.

If I can find a way past this problem, I have high hopes of setting up a
working desktop, and I'd be glad to contribute in whatever way I can to
the effort.  Is the project active right now?  I have not seen much
activity as of late.  I do wish the best for this project, since I think
it is valuable!

        Thanks!  Joe
