Hi James, |
5 |
|
6 |
orca is not included on our live cd currently. Also, I do not recommend |
7 |
using the gui installer; it has not been tested at all for |
8 |
accessibility. I would suggest using ssh access to the cd and following |
9 |
the handbook for doing the install. |
10 |
|
11 |
If you install with the 2008.0 cd, there is a way to have sshd start |
12 |
automatically when you boot it. Type this at the boot prompt: |
13 |
|
14 |
gentoo dosshd passwd=somepassword |
15 |
|
16 |
This example will start sshd and set the root password to somepassword. |
17 |
|
18 |
Let me know if you have any questions. |
