If yes, what are the gotchas, in terms of kernel config, hardware, etc? I |
| 58 |
have never installed a 64bit system yet, so I guess that'll be another thing |
| 59 |
to read on. |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
When building a server is it worth considering some GNAP type of set up, or |
| 62 |
should one build a complete Gentoo system with /usr/portage and all? |
