Hi, |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
The hardened project deals with augmentations to the generic Gentoo |
| 16 |
distribution, as detailed on http://hardened.gentoo.org/. If you are |
| 17 |
having trouble with a generic installation, you might be better off |
| 18 |
starting here [http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/], specifically with the |
| 19 |
Gentoo Installation Guides [http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/#doc_chap2]. |

Hardened should not result in KDE being required for DHCP to work, but |
| 22 |
you haven't really given us more information, so I don't know what to |
| 23 |
tell you. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Good luck. |
