Excellent. People seem to wear Stage 1 like a badge of honour but never seem to realise that the earlier you play around with your system the deeper the mistakes. Why are the instructions for the stage 1 and 2 in the handbook at all? They should be in Gentoo dev space and the only way new users find out about it should be through word of mouth. The people who *really* need/want a stage 1 will have the knowlege to ask releng about it George -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
