Really, the same here, altho I appreciated them when I got my netbook, and |
15 |
wanted to put Gentoo on it. Unfortunately, that's about the time the site |
16 |
did its disappearing act, and most of the information I could Google, etc, |
17 |
pointed back to the wiki that wasn't there any more! =:^( |
18 |
|
19 |
But the Arch-Linux forum thread and then wiki came to the rescue, tho I |
20 |
had to adapt some of what it said a bit more. And the gentoo-wiki page is |
21 |
back up, now, tho I'm not sure how it compares to what was there before |
22 |
the off-lining. |
23 |
|
24 |
But I'm more a newsgroups and mailing list person, not so comfortable with |
25 |
web forums or wikis. Perhaps that'll change with an official Gentoo wiki, |
26 |
perhaps not, but that's why I've not volunteered for it tho I support the |
27 |
idea. I don't want to pledge to help and then never get the properly |
28 |
rounded tuit. Better to discover that tuit by accident, and be there, |
29 |
then pledge to be there, and not. |

|
31 |
But I did REALLY miss them with the netbook info, that's for sure, and I |
32 |
definitely appreciate both the Gentoo wiki (after its return) and the Arch |
33 |
wiki for the info I was able to use, even more since it wasn't available |
34 |
for awhile! |
