Well I'm currently in the situation where I'd really like to get a gentoo 
installation up fast. I'm currently working as an intern and have been given 
a box with debian installed (woody). I'd really like to install gentoo but I 
obviously can't wait a day or so without being able to work on the machine 
(it's a Duron 750). So I'm stuck with debian.
