Subject: [gentoo-dev] little question (maybe stupid)
Date: Wed, 26 Jun 2002 03:55:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3D193B2C.20425.33AB93@localhost> (raw)

Please, do not take this a flame or anything, *it isn't*.

I started to get interested in gentoo when a friend of mine, that knows that I mainly use 
FreeBSD, told me that I should try out gentoo due to its phylosophy. This came up, 
because I said I would probably have to use linux in the meantime due to Samba.

Anyway, it looks interesting and opens new horizons for linux imho. Though, one 
question remains a mistery for me: can we full upgrade the system, or are we stuck, as 
with every linux, with the stock binary install ? I mean, instead of a "make buildworld", 
can we upgrade the "world" package, from src ?

This is a must for me, as I mainly work from home, and I'd hate to go some place just to 
upgrade a server via cd or anything similar.

Congrats on an interesting linux :-]
