[edit] Errata
Warning: there is a bug in Aegis Virus Scanner and Gnome VFS, if the PC isn't connected to the Internet, aegis-virus-scanner segfault. Warning: dev-php/php ebuild will fail on a Reiser4 partition. Always keep a small ext3 partition available incase you need it.
[edit] Feature Requests
I'd like to see liveCD ejects before system shutdown. It is quite annoying that you have to turn the machine on again to get the cd out.
[edit] Testmonials
Doesn't work with any of my scsi-based systems (needs AIC7xxx, MPTBASE,and MPTSCSIH)...
