The Gentoo/amd64 team is proud to announce a Gentoo/amd64 2004.3 LiveDVD is |
| 2 |
now available via bittorrent. The LiveDVD includes the following: |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
* bootable, kernel-2.6.9-r1 SMP |
| 5 |
* speakup support for accessibility users |
| 6 |
* CPUFREQ support for controlling CPU speed on laptops with buggy BIOS's |
| 7 |
* Documentation in HTML, TXT and PDF formats (/mnt/cdrom/docs) |
| 8 |
* bootstrap distfiles (/mnt/cdrom/distfiles) |
| 9 |
* portage snapshot (/mnt/cdrom/snapshots) |
| 10 |
* all stage tarballs (/mnt/cdrom/stages) |
| 11 |
* packageCD binary packages (/mnt/cdrom/packages) |
| 12 |
* packageCD source packages (/mnt/cdrom/distfiles-packages, ~800MB) |
| 13 |
* total size: ~1.8GB |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
This LiveDVD should provide all the packages you need to build a GUI desktop |
| 16 |
from sources or using binary packages (for quick installation). This differs |
| 17 |
from the universal CD since it includes the source tarballs for everything |
| 18 |
that is built in the packageCD. |

I would appreciate it if anyone with spare bandwidth could seed this torrent. |
| 21 |
You can seed it by emerging bittornado and issuing the following command at a |
| 22 |
bash prompt: |
| 23 |

| 24 |
btdownloadcurses.py --url \ |
