I'd like to suggest we add the LPP to the Gentoo kernel, as we're trying to be slick-looking. Part of the patch is dirt-ugly, so you may want to rewrite it. It would also be nice if we could use Gentoo artwork in the boot sequence instead of the standard stuff.
I'd love to... but I've never seen this thing work, period...
Then let's not bother about it. It's no biggie, there are _A LOT_ of better things to do.
