I wish tom's would update to work with gentoo. I've never ventured into |
| 2 |
bootdisk creation but I know it's been asked many times over: Can we |
| 3 |
have a gentoo boot-disk? Single-disk thing like tomsrtbt, but one that |
| 4 |
works with gentoo for a CD-less install is what I have in mind. |

I currently have 4-5 p200 boxes that are sitting useless because |
| 7 |
tomsrtbt is the only bootdisk that recognizes their NIC, but won't |
| 8 |
chroot because of the known problems. Slack and ZootLinux don't see the |
| 9 |
nic. |
