You don't need to print anything out - the LiveCD has a text-based web |
16 |
browser available. Simply write down the URL to your handbook of |
17 |
choice, and fire up links. You can specify a site on the command line, |
18 |
or use the G button to enter an address from inside the browser. I |
19 |
recommend using Alt-F2 to switch to a second virtual terminal, so you |
20 |
can run links on that while performing your installation on the first. |
21 |
If you need live support, you can use the IRC client, irssi (although |
22 |
most IRC servers reject connections from root, so you'll need to make |
23 |
yourself a user first). |

To actually answer your question: there *should* be no major changes to |
26 |
the procedure. I don't remember whether the 2005.1 handbook details the |
27 |
GCC migration, but as far as I know 2006.0 comes with the new GCC-3.4 |
28 |
already, so you could skip that portion (revdep-rebuilding and so on). |
