1 I go for floggings - works most times!

3 However, I seriously doubt whether gentoo would be suitable for someone
4 who cannot follow the text install process:

6 1. gentoo is a leading (bleeding in some cases) distro not aimed at the
7 newbie
8 2. due to 1, you may be making a "rod for your own back" in that you
9 will be doing micro-sysadmin
10 3. I think you seriously need to come up with an "enterprise strategy"
11 and standardised installs with support rather than letting them go their
12 own way (if that is possible).

14 This one of the difficulties, do you encourage penetration at any cost,
15 and watch it go sour, or control it and have to formally allocate
16 resources. In the kind of environment you describe, I think it would be
17 better to control the process if possible.
