Sheesh! 75 hrs downloading for nothing!
Last fall I installed a K6 200MHz amd system with 256 M of ram from a 2005 cd. It took a couple of days to compile everything, but the stage one install was successful and it's a firewall today. My suggestions would be to stip the USE flags down to the minimum you need. Another avenue is to install gentoo-embedded for x86: http://www.bulah.com/embeddedgentoo.html http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/embedded/index.xml http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/embedded/gnap.xml hth, James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
