Sabayon 9 review: Gentoo for the impatient

Sabayon 9 is the latest release of the Gentoo-based Linux distribution aimed at cutting-edge users who don’t want to spend a whole weekend compiling from source before they can use their distribution. It does this by providing an out-of-the-box desktop experience including proprietary video drivers, Adobe Flash, and so on, as well as attention to eye candy and detail. The Anaconda installer makes installation a breeze, although it crashed when we tried to resize an existing partition.
