No need to explain. Until recently, this list was the only discussion list for gentoo. I would post to gentoo-user about issues first to actually determine if it is a bug. Perhaps it's a case like this where you were missing a flag or something. Once it's determined to be a bug, a detailed bug report should be posted to gentoo-dev. Hopefully, we'll have a bug-tracking system setup for taking in bug reports in a consistent fashion. >Btw, it's odd to see that all my questions that i thought were really >dev-related (install/system questions, plans, hotplug) were not >answered, unlike the not-so-dev-related ones. Don't misunderstand me, i >really appreciate your answers (thanks all!), i just find this strange. I saw your questions, but wanted to let drobbins comment on them. He creates/coordinates the install images. I imagine others felt the same way. >Thanks again everyone, and sorry for my 'bad' questions, I'll try to >answer my future ones by myself (or elsewhere). Don't get me wrong. You're questions are fine. I'm just trying to remind everyone of the gentoo-user list so we can separate the functionality. kabau -- "UNIX was not designed to stop you from doing stupid things, because that would also stop you from doing clever things." --Doug Gwyn
