this looks THE good 2 c !
You're right.
It's not the good to choose gentoo for this laptop (cpu celeron coppermine 750mhz + 64M ram !)
So it's time for me to discovered the debian-world !
After 3 years on gnu/linux, i try this experience with an good experience in my bag.
But, is it a danger to format completly the disk?
I've got 2 parts on the disk, can i take all for GNU linux or must i keep the partition "hibernate HP"?
