Yes, I believe I did have a problem with the LiveCD. It hung while loading ther kernel. I suspect that the kernel on the LiveCD was not built with the "lagacy_start_address" option needed for MILO machines. I'm not sure about that though. I also have not tried the new LiveCD image that Jay put up for download last week. |

The only package giving me problems so far is Samba. I had been trying 2.2.8a, the one currently marked stable. I tried both with and without USE="-cups". It didn't make a difference. I still got the include conflicts. I just tried Samba 3 and got the same thing during emerge - |
