meewi,
One other thing to be careful of is always making sure you have
networking configured before each reboot to make sure the new
partition/setup you boot into works correctly. It would be a bummer to get
gentoo completely partitioned and setup correctly, but forget to change
/etc/conf.d/net to tell it to use a static ip (if for instance your hosted
machine is supposed to use a static ip) and have it boot into gentoo but not
have networking working.
If you decide to give it a go, let use know how it turns out. I'd be
interested in pitfalls and gotcha's you run into in case I need to do the
same thing in the future.
Tim
