Introduction to Gentoo Linux

Sponsored by MIT SIPB.

Gentoo Linux is a versatile and fast distribution for x86, PowerPC,
UltraSparc and Alpha systems that is geared towards Linux power
users. Unlike other distros, Gentoo Linux has an advanced package
management system called Portage. Portage is a true ports system in
the tradition of BSD ports, but is Python-based and sports a number
of advanced features including dependencies, fine-grained package
management, "fake" (OpenBSD-style) installs, path sandboxing, safe
unmerging, system profiles, virtual packages, config file management,
and more. A completed Gentoo Linux installation is customized and
optimized for your specific needs.
Gentoo Linux features the latest, modern tools including Linux
2.4.19+, gcc 3.2.1, LVM, EVMS, ext3, ReiserFS, XFS, Gnome, KDE, qmail
(with optional mysql and LDAP support), Postfix, exim, GRUB, and
named (not numbered) runlevels.
We will have an overview presentation and a demo of a finished Gentoo system.
