Funtoo in the Flesh

November 11th, 2008 wolfden No comments

I’ve been steadily working on my Funtoo install that I started through a chroot environment.  I must say that doing it like that sure makes it a lot easier.  You don’t have to worry about no cd/dvd disk,bad burn or installer issues.  Create your partition(s), download the stage you want, unzip, chroot in and start setting up the config files than build to your heart is content. When I booted into my new install I was able to boot into a fully working Gnome desktop and it took less than a day.  I have decided that Funtoo for me is a textured Gentoo with a little bit of Sabayon Linux that leaves a person with fantastic options.

Goodbye my friend

It’s been just a few minutes ago when I learned from Joost what happened to Mr. Bunz, a great fellow and warm shoulder who used to hang on our IRC channel. He was called Alan Fox. I feel empty inside. Rest in peace my friend.
