I seem to be pretty much on my own, here. I use Gentoo on a single desktop computer at home, mainly for developing free software (Emacs). I've configured the PC with two HDDs in RAID-1 (mirrored), and I run logical volume manager. I keep the box aggresively up to date, synching portage almost every day. One of these days, I'll get around to installing Gentoo on a dusty old laptop I've got. > -- > :wq Alan Mackenzie (Nuremberg, Germany).
