Hello all,
I have been a Linux user for over five years - mostly using SuSE first, then
Debian based distributions, but from time to time "toying" with Gentoo.
Now I'm in the process of building an Opteron based machine and decided it
would be a good idea to build a Gentoo-amd64 distribution.

I don't care for flash. I was more thinking of DivX and win32 codecs used by

I have just seen your post. I have been using Linux since 96 and used
Debian. I tried Gentoo when the eb mirrors were down. Now I won't go
back. The manuals are concise and you'll find the list very helpful.
Plus as you use the OS you'll find it is the pinnacle of Linux. GOOD

You shouldn't have to do that. If you boot from the proper ISO, i.e. one for
the amd64, it will have been done for you.
