Sorry for breaking the threading, as I only get the daily digest. My comments (interspersed) begin with the **.

You're most welcome. Happy I could point you in the direction of at least one (worthwhile) resource you didn't previously find. ;-)

Oh and a lot of time, the Gentoo Wiki (and Handbook) is a great resource as well (in addition to the Arch Linux Wiki for example). http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gentoo_installation_tips_and_tricks http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Complete_Handbook/Software_RAID

I don't often document where I read what. Though I try to keep notes of what commands I needed for this or that, but not all of them.
