Wow. That was fun, and interesting, and I learned a bunch!
I just wanted to report a successful, functional Gentoo install on my
iBook. I started some time friday morning, and worked on it whenever I
was a) home, b) not doing yard work, and c) it wasn't still compiling
something or other.
I installed the 2.6 kernel, on a ReiserFS partition. I somehow managed
to configure yaboot without making OS X un-bootable (HFS+ partition),
and have a "file exchange" partition in HFS for my MP3s, and any other
files that need to go between the two systems.
When I try to mount the HFS partition, I instead get a brief error
message, then the keycodes get printed out for everything I type, and I
have to reboot, but I'll work on that.
This week, I'll try to install X, and MOL (mac-on-linux) :-)
Thanks everyone for their input on which distro at the meeting last
week, and for the help in the middle of my install
~Michael
