From the Red Hat list. Other people have volunteered to post
info related to other OSs on Alpha (NT/Win2K and FreeBSD).
Might be a good place to post Gentoo info for now.
Personally, I wish this Wiki was created on alphalinux.org
since that site already exists, but it's a start anyway.
I think the Alpha user community is starting the dwindle
enough in numbers that the major Linux distros (Gentoo,
Debian, Fedora/CentOS) really should start think about
helping each other out a little bit more than we currently
do.

Since all the cool kids have a Wiki these days ...
http://alphacore.info/wik
i/
I'm throwing this out as a last piece of thanks to the Alpha
crew. I haven't switched on my DS10 for months, ever since I
picked up an awfully cheap 64-bit Sempron system which I'm
utterly astounded with, performance-wise, considering how
much I paid for it.
The big roaring blue box just doesn't have a place in my
life right now. I guess I'm semi-retiring from Alpha
development ... not that I've done much in the last year
anyway; although I will keep the domain registered, and the
sites up and hosted, by all means.
The Wiki at least is a good solution to keep me from being
solely responsible for doing updates in a timely manner.
My initial goal is to pull most of the good stuff out of the
spam-riddled Alpha Core Forums, and start from there. I'll
put the entire thing under the GFDL so we can poach from
Wikipedia's AXP info as a base, but we'll have the scope for
things like giving each machine type its own article, which
will never happen there.
This isn't intended as an Alpha Core specific thing, either.
Other OS pages are quite welcome.
So, whether it lives and thrives, or just becomes another
dusty and neglected site on the net, it's there. It's
staying there. If anyone feels like playing, go for it.
