Hi All,

I will be playing with my chroot gentoo install on top of CentOS4.1, tnx 
again Josh, some time this weekend, and will also try to post my 
thoughts on gentoo, from someone who is far closer to a newbie, than 
Stephen ever could be, even if he tried to fake it...I quickly scanned 
the manual, and found some of it quite confusing, but, it was around 
3-4am, so, may not be as bad as I first thought. Cheers.

Mark Sargent.
