Or here I cam in mind by that i could now take the first 1tb harddisk for
router, there now is been on mt third fido pc to work on a new installation of
Gentoo router setup.
Clean it complete and make a fresh clean install with sda1 sda2 sda3 sda4 and
no sdax for wmdos run it.
just create boot spaw root + home partions, make the swap to be more than 520
as there is least 1G ram on it, make boot to be big enough like least 30G then
root to 300G and then /home as the rest of space for ftp and user work.
Do all the router setup and systems installed as hdcpd bind iptables maned
shorewall etc. + mail server postfix dovecot + mail server files.
So all server function is getting working an it can be used for 64bit server
and it is be used as server, then is it then on to the next step as install and
setup mbse on it together with net-telnetd and golded.
