Thank $DEITY it's Friday!

There's something quite magical about leaving for work and seeing that frost has attached itself to every available surface outside, glimmering in the sun light, and the waning gibbous moon still quite high in the bright sky.

In Furry TV Doc related news I heard nothing from the media rep last night, so unless I call her again tonight I think it's safe to assume that either she doesn't want/need to talk to me anymore or the doc is not going forward. Considering how anxious she sounded to get this done as quickly as possible I'm a bit dubious as to her motives now.

With regards to my room I've finalised the floor plan now; I know exactly where everything will go, and as soon as I fit the curtain rail and move the desk/computer I'm getting Gentoo up and running, no doubt about it. I'm really not a Dual-Boot fan as it seems such a waste of time to have to boot into another OS just to do something else, but when I get my laptop in three weeks time I might start using that as my Windows box and go completely Linux with my main one.

I forgot to comment on yer last post, but if ya need any help with Gentoo, I'd be more than happy to offer my services. I've been running Gentoo for the past month now and have grown quite accustomed to it. It's nice to have an OS that doesn't have to be rebooted every 3 days and crash on ya every other four days. :)

Thanks for the offer, but I've used Gentoo before and know where I'm going. :)

One thing to look out for is that Gentoo has recently switched to defaulting to a stage3 install, due to large numbers of people managing to break their install doing a stage1 or stage2 one.

Instructions for doing a rebuild once you've finished stage3 (giving the same effect as a stage1, but quicker) can be found in the first post in this thread.
