decimation: ascii_field: honestly if you want this product you are probably going to need to build yourself

trinque: ascii_field: stageN -> genkernel -> grub2-install -> grub2-mkconfig ??
ascii_field: mod6: ...working set of instructions that allow a person to construct gentoo in our preferred way << i suspect that this is a nonstarter on account of the unavailability of sane hardware. see the thread where mircea_popescu installed gentoo and then threw it off a cliff
mod6: <+trinque> mircea_popescu: built him a bootable image of gentoo in about an hour last weekend << yup, this is true. and I haven't been able to try it out yet. i'm planning on trying out the steps that he deed'd tomorrow. the image is great, but the goal is to get to a working set of instructions that allow a person to construct gentoo in our preferred way. so even if the image works, im not sure this is something to be used for anything else. he

decimation: ascii_field: so you want high speed, streaming and no winblows?
decimation: ascii_field: what about this: https://www.saleae.com/
decimation: ascii_field: surely there are older HP models that run HP-UX?
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: thing is, we could get the $20k one here at $firm. but it will RUN XP
decimation: ascii_field: yeah I have a friend who used to work at HP developing logic analyzers
mircea_popescu: ascii_field it's really a socialism problem. the plebeian criterion "it works" has surpassed the aristocratic "it makes sense". this is supposedly... better. in fact it's merely cheaper,
decimation: ascii_field: yeah I read your bitching
decimation: ascii_field: why does it require specialized turdware then?
decimation: !up ascii_field

assbot: Logged on 12-06-2015 17:52:04; jurov: ascii_field: and is it really such a difference in practice?
jurov: mircea_popescu: as long as there are breathing/talking holes left...

ascii_field: mircea_popescu: it is monumentally retarded to do whole day's work to read back an 8k rom.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field that's not SO retarded.
nubbins`: mircea_popescu ask tsp i guess :D

mod6: <+nubbins`> you can't get a bash prompt? << for instance on my POS box that I bought for $129.00 an x86_64 core2duo, I can't even install the os. All i can do is boot the livecd, do the chroot stuff, and then end up at the grub> prompt upon reboot. when it comes to my instance in AWS, i've had better luck, but doing stuff for me is so time consuming. in this case, i need to get gcc recompiled with patches to see if we can get past this error we
