Oh yeah... Don't think of committing lightly, yesterday I tested it out
on a machine and managed to lose the ability to boot into Windows. And
in the end I couldn't even boot into Yoper as there was no option to
make a boot disk and making one manually also failed.
It's install process is very nasty and unintuitive, that part definitely
needs a lot of work.
I can't say about the rest because I haven't gotten that far yet!

Sorry - It's a problem that both I and Carrie on Sex in the City have
had our whole lives! ;-)
I'm probably better off to stick with Gentoo and use the patches for
Con's kernel that are in the forums. I'll still look at Yoper, but on a
safer, less committed basis I think. ;-)
