Peter's on the money. I recently built a Celeron 1000 desktop (KDE) for a client from a stage 1. It took about 48 hours to get KDE up-and-running. A stage 1 server build on an Athlon 2400+ with 256MB (no x, but samba, dns, dhcp, postfix, apache, mysql, etc., etc.) takes about 5 hours. We use Norton Ghost mostly (which is a PITA to use, IMO)...
Cheers, Laurie.
I'll try and remember to "time" each step the next time I install Gentoo.
At the moment I'm getting mke2fs to format and test (mke2fs -c -c /dev/hdc1) a disk to copy my SuSE 9.0 partition onto before I repartition /dev/hda to make a partition for Gentoo.
