It took me a day or so to get through all the merges, but I just finished installing Gentoo 1.3b (with optimized KDE) on a Pentium 3 500MHz with 256MB of RAM. The install went almost flawlessly thanks thanks to a great tip in the GCC 3 forum about a make.default file that seems to have been left out of the 1.3b tarball.

It's been just a few hours but things seem very stable. Time will tell. Most of all, this machine is very fast again. I can hardly tell the difference between it and my everyday work machine which is an Athlon 1200MHz with 512MB of RAM.

Stunning work guys. Thanks

Seth

Gladly. It's the 1.3b Stage 1 emerge error thread at

https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=5877

I bet it's been fixed by now though.
