Here I share my experiences with setting up a GNU/Linux-box.
I am now using a combination of Gentoo Linux and OpenBSD. A lot of this material was written for Red Hat Linux (because this was the distribution that I used before Gentoo) but normally the ideas and configs should be portable to other distribution.
Please feel free to contribute!
Oh yeah, I'm not responsible for screwing up your machine!
Fortune : In the plot, people came to the land; the land loved them; they worked and struggled and had lots of children. There was a Frenchman who talked funny and a greenhorn from England who was a fancy-pants but when it came to the crunch he was all courage. Those novels would make you retch. -- Canadian novelist Robertson Davies, on the generic Canadian novel.
