Since I use older hardware, the eventual hard drive failures are a problem. I am looking for input as to the best method to use to get a gentoo based (iptables) firewall onto a bootable CD, so I do not have to rely on hard drives any more. a USB stick based gentoo firewall (micro) distro would also be of interest. Any suggestions? James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
