hmmm.. I guess they'll just boot a gentoo-live cd, assign an ip, enable ssh and make user do the install instead. =) its not that difficult to install, you just need alot of popcorn and some dvd's coz of the long install process. I wish I can do local coloc but its too expensive here in the philippines, anywayz, I already got one for $30 a month per server =) its a P4 256MB ram with 40 GB HD. cool!!!! They are willing to let me setup gentoo!!!! the setup fee is $200 per server though =( -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
