1 Hi all,
2
3 I have two question about gentoo:
4
5 1)
6 I read this in an install howto: The bootstrap takes about 1 hour even
7 on a fast machine... My bootsrap takes about 3 houn on Athlon
8 XP1800+ Is that good? I think it too long. It compiles mc about half a
9 day...
10
11 2)
12 I choose gentoo becouse I think I can choose, what i want to install.
13 If I install mc (emerge app-misc/mc ), why does it install Xserver,
14 Xfree86 etc. And for icewm why does it emerge gnome stuffs?
15 How can I owerride it?
16 I have a "new, just installed" system, with mc and icewm. it is about
17 1Gb. Why?
18
19 Thanks.
