Furthermore if you run an openmosix cluster you should have some experience on large deployment of Gentoo. All equal boxes? Uni don't have too many money... they surely will be different boxes... How do you manage them? I read there are a couple of ut/scripts around to automate/ease the initial partition/chroot/setup procedure. What is the current status of these things? ooh yeah I'm planning to use Gentoo for my desktop as well so the uptime question has no meaning in this context... Any developer around who has to keep perl, python, gtk, qt, glibc, gcc, updated had any trouble in the last 6 months? And last but not least since Gentoo is unique on each box you install it depending on the USE, CFLAGS, packages you chose, you can't just insert a DVD inside and reinstall from scratch. My rough idea was to burn a "personalized" stage3 once in a while, how? any better solution? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
