I don't think it stands a snowball's chance in ... Well, you get the idea. |

Sascha, I'm thinking that if you start with a bare-bones handbook install |
| 6 |
you'll have a minimum system, at least for gentoo support. It won't have X, |
| 7 |
desktops, many of the services & tools, etc. |

If you're thinking about an embedded device (i.e. a router) then you |
| 10 |
wouldn't want to use a source-based install like gentoo on it, you'd either |
| 11 |
want to use a binary distribution (many examples of minimum linux |
| 12 |
distributions out there, check http://www.distrowatch.com for variations) or |
| 13 |
you could create a home-brew distribution from a customized setup based upon |
| 14 |
gentoo, but a hand-generated distrib could be difficult to pull together |
| 15 |
(difficult to identify all of necessary files that must be on the distro). |
