13 Thanks for the reply. I also agree that the docs should be ready first
14 then the change. I have a friend that may be switching from Gentoo
15 because he can not get good docs on how to get his network working after
16 the OpenRC update. It appears the docs he needs aren't ready yet.
17 What's the point of having a nice Gentoo install if you can't set up
18 your network stuff?

20 Looks like I'm going to be using the test drive soon. I'm going to have
21 to get into all this stuff I truly hate to mess with.
