so what we're looking at here (and what was planned on in the first place) was |
| 9 |
adding the packages to portage but RESTRICT=nomirror |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
that way we are provide scripts that download the tarballs from elsewhere and |
| 12 |
build/install it ... the xbox install uses x86 stages anyways so we dont have |
| 13 |
to worry about that ... |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
the Gentoo docs can simply be hosted on the xbox-linux servers |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
only question left i see in this thread is livecds ... i dont know the |
| 18 |
innerdetails of how the xbox livecds would work, but i'm sure gimli could |
| 19 |
enlighten us ... they too might have to be hosted on xbox-linux servers ;) |
