Gentoo Linux 1.1a has been released! If you're setting up a new Gentoo |
4 |
Linux system, be sure to use the new 1.1a ISOs and .tbz2s, available |

Of course, existing Gentoo Linux users can upgrade to the most recent |
10 |
version of Gentoo Linux in-place without reinstalling. To upgrade a |
11 |
Gentoo Linux 1.0 system to 1.1a, simply type: |
12 |
|
13 |
# emerge rsync |
14 |
# emerge sys-apps/portage |
15 |
# emerge --update world |
16 |
(then update your config files in /etc) |
17 |
|
18 |
If you have a Gentoo Linux 1.0_rc6 or earlier system, please see the |
19 |
following URL for upgrade instructions. These are 1.0_rc6 to 1.0 |
20 |
upgrade instructions, but will also work for 1.0_rc6 to 1.1 upgrades: |

Various important improvements to Portage: |
31 |

34 |
|
35 |
New design for our nvidia-glx, nvidia-driver and xfree ebuilds: |
36 |
