How deep does the rabbit hole go?

My mother drew a distinction between achievement and success. She said that 'achievement is the knowledge that you have studied and worked hard and done the best that is in you. Success is being praised by others, and that's nice, too, but not as important or satisfying. Always aim for achievement and forget about success.' -- Helen Hayes

Still trying to get Mythtv setup with Gentoo

I’m still trying to get mythtv setup on a friends box (an ITX Via C3-2 proc). I haven’t been spending a whole lot of time on it mind you, however, the problems I’m experiencing are more because of the hardware. (the C3-2) Its a little bit different in a couple of areas and I’m trying to make it as lean and fast as possible because speed is my main priority. With that, I’ve been using an -Os as one of my compile options, and I’m not sure if its because the proc is only a 1Ghz, or if compiling for size just takes that much longer. When I setup my main box i’m currently using (Athlon 2800+) I believe i had it up in about 3 days start to finish. Its probably because that computer is sitting on the floor and its unconfortable to sit down with it… I do have everything installed now I just need to do the configuring, so I’m hoping that won’t take long. :)
