The first gentoo install I did was an ~20M iso that kicked off a stage
1. Maybe we need a 3rd split of the install cd - minimal, full and
games? This is not about cribbing a few bytes from /nano/vi/vim, but
about a return to the older philosophy of a dedicated kickstart,
download (usually ahead of time), the stage tarball and go, instead of
the everything on cd it has become. Something that would fit on a 64m
pendrive would be cool.
