Eh? You don't need to duck from me... I am one of those guys who are against initrd/initramfs :-P That said, anyone read his description of other distros? Somehow I got the vibes that Gentoo's is the one where he didn't explicitly point out something bad against; only a lamentation that he really don't want to spend too much time compiling everything. The blog writer's closing paragraph is very poetic it hurts; for I'm about to leave my beloved Gentoo servers behind... Rgds,
