15 80Kbs? You sure about that? I somehow failed to mention this before.
16 I noticed it when I saw another reply to this post. Reality check:
17
18 root@fireball / # ls -al /boot/initramfs-3.*
19 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5444240 Jan 1 07:24 /boot/initramfs-3.1.5-gentoo.img
20 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5515132 Jan 9 07:57 /boot/initramfs-3.2.0-r1.img
21 root@fireball / #
22
23 That's using the dracut tool. Somehow, over 50Mbs is not anywhere close
24 to 80Kbs, or maybe my calculator is broken.

33 Miss the compile output? Hint:
34 EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--quiet-build=n"
