The problem is that most of these firewall distributions like monowall and pfsense are shipped out as a raw 'img' file that you dd to the CF card. Even if they do have a livecd style iso image, that's designed assuming the firewall is going to be alone on the HDD so there's no provision to setup a grub.

IPCOP installation erases data on target hard disk and creates its own partitions...Any suggestion? You mentioned IPCOP.Do you think it’s possible to dual boot Gentoo and IPCOP?
