14 I've done two machines now (6 more to go!) and it's been mostly
15 painless. I had the grub and cdrdao rebuild problems, solved by
16 upgrading to grub2 and applying a patch to lame for cdrdao. I also had
17 pygtk fail, but once the `emerge -e world` finished, I just had to
18 rebuild it and it was fine.
