Heh, well I'm dual-booting with XP Pro, so I'll give me about a week.

Actually it took me about 2 hours.

Are you thinking of Gentoo?

Possibly, I tried my hand at installing both and one of them took an insanely long time.

Only if you have to bootstrap, though.

Congrats OP!

Ayup. However, in another thread, I tested a quad Opteron 848 server with 4Gb RAM, and that, for example, compiled and installed XOrg in 13-15 minutes. A full kernel compile was down into something like 4-5 minutes.

Maybe those figures are way off, but compared to my 2600+ machine, it was awesomely fast- never seen a machine make Gentoo Stage 1 so freaking fast.

Only took me two days on a P-150.

Enjoy Debian though.

Awesome, congrats

A friend of mine helped me bootstrap Gentoo once. Thats one hell of an installation, I tell you, just ridiculous.

I've since switched to AMD64 so my old install is worthless and I want it back. I'm going to install from the stage-3 tarball as soon as I have a good day to devote to it. Gentoo rocks.

 

I love how I can upgrade the entire distro to a new version (I'm running Sarge now) by typing "apt-get -u dist-upgrade"
