I would Like to see a Gentoo Distro for the Multia (Universal Desktop Box)
Its a LOW end Alpha, and other distro's (RedHat, Debian, NetBSD) have installs/documentation for it... Why not a Gentoo Distro?
Thoughts? / Feedback? / Flames?
All Are Welcome

Gentoo/Alpha is available, the install documentation is coming but isnt ready yet. Gentoo on Alpha is very usable, and works great, although i would reccomend starting from stage1 unless you have a good reason not to. |
