the sitch
so here’s what’s happening recently:
not much.
ha! i kid. seriously, though. we’re still moving ahead, but slowly. right now i’m trying to get the right build for the box. i want a good combination of minimal overhead vs. ease of maintenance, and this is proving to be hard to set up. :) there’s an advanceCD build that boots straight off of a cd (very minimal overhead), but it would need to have to be altered by hand to look at the hard drive, etc. (and we’d have to do it again every time we decided to use a new release), which == high-maintenance.
i think we may have a possible compromise in gentoo between overhead and maintenance, but i won’t say more until i have it up and running. i spent a good chunk of time last night setting it up only to realize that i’d set up the stupid partitions wrong, and i have to do it over. :) oh well.
just so you guys know, the project isn’t dead by any stretch of the imagination.
