I recently built 2 stage 1 Gentoo servers at Fdcservers datacenter in |
17 |
chicago over ssh intended to be used purely for virtual domain virtual |
18 |
mail hosting and for shells. Those guys especially Luke are tremendous. |
19 |
They don't officially support gentoo but one of the senior staff Luke is |
20 |
very supportive and the staff will happily reboot a fresh box and inset |
21 |
a 2.6 kernel livecd and support you through your build. We did not want |
22 |
the servers to go installing xfree while we weren't looking... No way |
23 |
anyone's gonna use xfree on em anyways... there totally headless. I |
24 |
spotted this in my inbox and thought it worth mentoining that qt has an |
25 |
xfree dependancy aswell. Here's the use flags i used to engineer both |
26 |
servers. |
