I brought a few CD-Rs from home to burn the ISO of Gentoo and slackware and was quite enthusiast to install them. Suddenly, I feel that installing linux on a single harddisk is no kick, I decided to try to do a dual-booting system which supports Windows 2000 Professional and Gentoo. I was influenced by my irc-friends to try Gentoo but when installing it, I faced several problems and so, I gave up. The installation handbook provided by gentoo.org is too lengthy, took me some time to source for another document which is more simple, precise and straight to the point. The link is here: Gentoo Installation Guide.

Even with the link, I didn’t went too far with it.. So I gave up and tried to install slackware.. Everything is so fine until the installation cocks up (missing some packages on the CD?) I don’t know, but they mentioned about it and the booting up kernel has some problem, I kept getting Kernel Panic.. so I tried until the very end, Sunny they all comes into the lab and we went home.

Same thing, I will try again tomorrow, try until I succeed.
