[gentoo-dev] experimental liveCD

[Seemant Kulleen]

Hi All,

If people are willing to test an install on this (for AthlonXP) that
would be much appreciated.

http://dev.gentoo.org/~drobbins/livecd-athlon-xp-1.4-20030730-cd1.iso


Follow the normal instructions and unpack stage 3.  Then:

unpack /mnt/cdrom/snapshots/portage-xyz.tar.bz2 to /mnt/gentoo/usr
copy /mnt/cdrom/distfiles/* to /mnt/gentoo/usr/portage/distfiles/
(create dir)
copy /mnt/cdrom/packages/* (-a) to /mnt/gentoo/usr/portage/packages/
then to install binaries, do a USE="bindist" emerge -K xfree

and particularly, genkernel needs testing:
USE="bindist" emerge -K genkernel

and then just emerge some kernel, and run genkernel

Thanks,
