Yea no problem... I'll type up a howto as far as I remember... it'll cover howto running Gentoo 2005.1 and netboot it so that the only files on the harddrive are the Xromwell, linuxconfig file, and kernel.
I'll post it much more detailed hopefully tom. Is this for one person or are there more people interested so I'll actually put a good amount of time into it.
