Actually after the first or 2nd or some subsequent attempt that was my

started to wonder where to go next on a tired brain. I set qt3support
emerging around that time, and more than 3 hours later and time for bed
its hundred& some packages were still emerging. I woke up hours later
to goto the bathroom and found that done, so set kdm to install. That
hundred plus set of packages is still emerging now, nearly 6 hours
later. Maybe 32 bit 1667MHz& 512M RAM is on the skimpy side for
installing Gentoo?
Not to mention there is pretty much no way you'll be using kde on that
hardware! I'd be surprised if X would be usable on that even with blackbox
wm...
This is a joke right?
I once ran Gentoo Linux with KDE3 on a 133Mhz machine with 256Mbs of
ram. It wasn't fast but it did OK. A friend used it to play cards on.
No internet or anything tho.
I did the compiling via chroot on my old rig which had a much faster CPU
and such. I just plugged the drive into my rig and did my thing.
It may be slow but it should work. Make sure you have some swap tho.
