Re: What to try next?

I'm really getting sick of people putting gentoo in to some impossible category. The current release is a breeze to install compared to version 1.4 or earlier. Is it harder than a nice GUI install, yes. It is an absolute must install if you want to learn more and delve deeper into linux. I've been running it since the pre-1.0 days. Haven't moved away from it.

If you want something even more indepth then gentoo and really want to start getting into some linux internals, try linuxfromscratch: www.linuxfromscratch.org

I agree, Slack is more of a treasure hunt than gentoo.

For what it's worth, I miss Gentoo stage 1 installs.

I did one recently just for the nostalgias sake into a virtual machine. Even that out performed when I used to do them on an old PIII.
