If this actually works first time the folks at Gentoo deserve a medal
One question though, would you advise using the gentoo kernel or a kernel.org one? Am I right in thinking that Gentoo tend to update their kernel pretty much as a new stable version is released?

I managed a gentoo install without a problem, its now running my 'test' server for the PA Tools, and a few other things. I used the Gentoo-sources kernel - seems to be running well... only problem i had was with compiling the kernel - moaning about not being able to find some functions or other, i solved that by disabling one of the modules (to do with the chipset - SiS something or other)
