  I made a similar decision about 8 months ago, but decided against a
  debian based system. Simply because I can handle gentoo better when it
  comes to compile own stuff.
  I started from scratch. The pro is that you definitely know what's on
  the system whatever distro you choose. The con is the amount of time
  it takes to get the thing up and running the way you want it to.

  Cheers,


                                                        Chris Kronberg.
