[olug] gentoo install problems

[Jay Swackhamer]

cpuburn is a test that runs data throught the CPU at an interval you specify
to stress the CPU, it's an old test that I use frequently on unknown
hardware.....

Typically

boot from gentoo CD
memtest
boot fully from gentoo CD, then nfs a directory from a server with
CPUburn... and run for a half hour....
then install Gentoo....
