A frustrating day with lots of work, standard definitions but little done...

========================================
What I remember doing:

-> openldap built with minimal problem:

        -- Fixed by explicitly adding it to the liveCD-stage1.spec 
(forced rebuild with the correct USE flag)
        -- read 
/usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/amd64/2008.0/desktop/../../../../../targets/desktop/package.use 
for more details

-> discuss about IP configurations and defaults. We finally opted to 
give instructions in the MOTD about  running emerge --config on the 
specialized packages I have built.

-> Built LiveCDs x++ times to test the process and integration of the 
ebuilds, hit a few errors on the way but finally got something concrete.

========================================
Tomorrow:
-> Add instructions to the user for setting up the environement 
(beowulf-head/beowulf-head-0.1.ebuild) as well as some verification on 
the network configuration (make sure it IS at least configured)
-> Start testing dnsmasq config from the liveCD

-> Need to find a way to mimic the gentoo-livecd-release spec profile 
(so the user _can_ install from the clustering liveCD...)
...and lots more...

========================================
Heros of the day:

agaffney on #gentoo-cluster
pchrist  all over the place
