Re Gentoo: I read E. Liddell's post with great interest and am
interested to help but maybe don't have the knowledge, skills and test
hardware to do so.
Re PCLinuxOS: recently I burned the live DVD image to bootable USB
stick and tried to install; it hung after a single line of text.  I
might have done it wrong and am willing to try again.
