I’ve had a shit box laying around (800 mhz) for a little while that I haven’t bothered to use. I usually use it for a temporary server or to mess around with. Since I’ve started to get back into playing Americas Army, I’ve wanted to be able to IRC and MSN while I’m dead easily. Sp O decided to setup Gentoo on this box and mess around.



After a day or so of waiting for stuff to compile (<3 emerge, hasn’t failed me yet) I have a working box, with xfce4 and that. So far I’m really like gentoo, everything has been easy to setup, and once you become patient and wait for things to compile it’s really nice.

It’s good having only the applications you need, and not any other junk
