/me is quite unconcerned *

(in other news, I *did* just start an emerge -e world, but that was for other reasons. 620 packages. Let's see how far I'll get...)

600 packages.... wow!
what connection you have?

Heh, and guess who has just downloaded and burned rc4 because the old one disappeared... Oh well, probably doesn't make a huge difference...

Gentoo will probably get some attention for this, though, so that's great!

I guarantee you no difference if its stage 1.

edit: Is there cd 2 with the grp packages on any of the mirrors yet?. I'm about to install it on another computer and i don't want it to take forever to install gnome, mozilla, and evolution. This is for athlon-xp since i've noticed that other arch have cd2.

GRP CD2 for Athlon XP is not available currently. Frankly, we've had all sorts of problems with the Athlon XP build.

Athlon XP users can safely use the i686 set.

Ya, i've been having problems recently with gnome/evolution and occasionally mozilla on my main and have been a little frustrated because not everything has been working too well. I was also hoping to wipe my gnome install and replace it with the grp.

We'll i'll burn the pentium 3 one for the moment. Can't seem to find one of those. all mirrors are busy. I guess i can wait. i got exams to study for. hehe.

Are there any GRP packs on CD1 for Athlon-xp or is everything on CD2?

Am I the only one that pronounces GRP like "gerp"? (that's a hard G as in "gate"). Do you guys just say the letters?

I find it kind of funny that I pronounce GRP like "gerp", but GNU is "gee-en-you" when I say it. :lol:

There's xfree and a few other small ones.
I say "G-R-P"

Hmmm... can't find any Stage 3 / GRP for Pentium 4 stuff on the mirrors... is this expected "soon" or should I just use i686?

Thanks,
emgarf

EDIT: Never mind, found them on the Oregon State servers.

Some mirrors are lagging behind - since the master mirror is getting hit hard, a lot of European mirrors especially are getting files extremely slowly.

Frankly, we need a better mirror system (with more master mirrors), but that's something I can bug our infrastructure people about.

I hate to cross-post, but here goes:

Is distcc support available for the bootstrap process? I know it wasn't "officially" supported before, and that a few people had hacked together a working model... but I need real documentation rather than "It works for me(TM)" stuff.
