Well, if you must know, I've considered GenToo, but I want something that I can get up and running fairly quickly, as I've other users to be concerned about. Once I have RedHat 7.3 running, I'll have another spare partition to experiment with. But I think I'll take a whack at LFS and BLFS rather than GenToo. That looks like it'd be more fun :-), and it can be built without rebooting.
hmmm, I wonder if you can install GenToo in a chrooted environment...ie, build LFS, then chroot to the LFS base install and install GenToo.
