Unless it has changed, it is "gentoo nox" at the prompt. Whatever |
| 21 |
option you want to use, you have to put the gentoo first. At least it |
| 22 |
was that way the last I used it anyway. If you just put nox, it will |
| 23 |
ignore it for some reason or other. |

Hope that helps. |

Oh, I use Knoppix most of the time. I can surf the web while something |

compiles. ;-) |
