No. You should not be using livecd/type: gentoo-release-minimal when |
| 13 |
you aren't building a Gentoo release. There is generic-livecd for |
| 14 |
*anything* that is not official Gentoo media. The basic premise is that |
| 15 |
the official media requires some things and does some things that users |
| 16 |
will not want. If you're using gentoo-release-* and something is being |
| 17 |
overwritten, you're pretty much going to get a simple response from me. |
| 18 |
Don't use gentoo-release-* as it is doing what is expected. |
