Hello, |
5 |
|
6 |
good to know that someone keeps an eye on this. :-) |
7 |
I've added myself (my email-address) to the "gentoo-installer"-list |
8 |
some days ago and was wondering, if there are any activities |
9 |
on this project. |
10 |
|
11 |
I already found (and read some of the) documentation |
12 |
that was realeased on this project, but -- to be honest -- |
13 |
not very much (current) information seems to be available. |
14 |
|
15 |
Although I have a rough idea of where it is heading to, |
16 |
I would be very happy to get more technical details. |
17 |
Maybe I can add some value... |
18 |
|
19 |
I've been working in the fields of Desktop and Software-Management |
20 |
on Win32-platforms for about 8 years, with focus on enterprise |
21 |
environments, i. e. thousands of clients. |
22 |
Always tracking the progress in the fields of Open-Source-Software |
23 |
and especially Linux, I decided mid of this year, that time has come |
24 |
to go back to the/my roots, i. e. Linux. |
25 |
|
26 |
Since then I'm spending quite a lot of my (spare) time to become |
27 |
familiar (again) with current Linux/OpenSource Technology. |
28 |
I think it was predictable that I bumped into gentoo-linux, |
29 |
because "portage" (compile from source) seems to be the "natural way" |
30 |
of integrating Open-Source-Software into an (automated) client setup |
31 |
and later then into a Change-Management-Process for enterprise clients... |
32 |
|
33 |
At the moment I am working on making PXE and a Mini-Kernel (genkernel, busybox, ...) |
34 |
available on a fli4l-Router (www.fli4l.de) to implement an OS bootstrap that |
35 |
allows Win32 and Linux to be installed automatically. |
36 |
|
37 |
In the later case I would like to "pass the baton" as early as possible... |
38 |
|
39 |
So it's quite clear that I'm very interested in all "gentoo-installer" activities. |

| After reading it more thoroughly, I see that the top entry (some |
54 |
| alpha-type release) is February, and we've actually had one ChangeLog |
55 |
| entry (yay codeman!) between June and now. |
