What's that smell like, exactly?

Kiroku6, welcome to a great distribution and community, and an absolutely fabulous way to waste hours and hours of time. No, there isn't something else I should be doing...

Kinda like shellfish, but without the strong odors if left alone for too long.

Oh, and to the original poster, congratulations, hope you'll like it.

CURSE YOU GENTOO!

I need to go make a Gentoo Anonymous forum.

"Hi! My name is Lord Bob"
everyone: "Hi, Bob!"
"I've been adicted to Gentoo and those crazy forums for over a year now. Speaking of forums: I'll be right back..."

And your sig, freakiR, is more true for me then you will ever know

.

And to Kiroku6, GET OUT WHILE YOU CAN!

Welcome to the community yo!

Installing Gentoo for the first time: Priceless.

Congrats!

Kiroku6 · Post by **Kiroku6** » Tue Mar 02, 2004 6:44 pm

Well, someting went wrong after the install, and i decided to just reinstall. I am now installing 2004.0 hopefully i will be able to get everything running. This may be a slow process (especcially for me who is new to linux completely) but from what ive found, in the long run very worth it. I am already considering putting it on my iMac.

Thanks for the warm welcomes!
Kikiyo

Using the forums to search for "something went wrong" may have solved the issue without a new install

Did you search for the particular "what went wrong" thing???? You usually have someone with the right answer.

Heh, that "something went wrong" may have been an "rm -rf /". That'll make ya re-install.

While I'm not new to linux I'd like to extend a warm welcome to tgourley and a big thank you to the Gentoo community here. So many specialized forums such as our own frown on posting "frivolous threads" or posting a question previously answered that many of the replies often are nasty without answering the original question. Here when a person steps in to say hello everyone says hello instead of tearing him/her apart. Not only that but even for unsearched questions generally the forum will answer their question with a polite reminder to search. Such a friendly atmosphere is such a relief from the rest of the internet.

Well, this may be an old post, but my mission to install Gentoo on my 1600 failed, after it was installed i couldnt get any window managers or even X server to work. I know have built a new computer which will have Gentoo on it.
