[OT] Gentoo -> Re: gcc 3.2.2?

[Steven Tower]

I was unaware that you could bootstrap gentoo long after an install, but low 
and behold it looks like you can.  I actually upgraded one of my remote boxes 
(was Mandrake 7.0) to Gentoo 100% from remote and booted into gentoo, scary 2 
1/3 minutes waiting for the server to come back up. :)

Thanks for (inadvertently) bringing this to my attention.
