Well I think it is normal for us don't distribute those images to worldwide severs. Simply make torrents and put the .torrent files on a public sever, then users can download it without pressing our server.

Having been grazing with the gentoo herd (admittedly out of frustration with karmic) I discovered that their RC system is dependency based, where each init script lists which other init scripts it depends upon. Sounds like just the sort of "hey that's cool" that could be included. Now, assuming t
