1 Hello developers,
2
3 I have an idea concerning Gentoo Live Distro. As a
4 Live Distro, it is essential that it is trimmed,
5 leaving the biggest space available for application.
6 However, in order to trim it we certainly can NOT
7 include drivers of ALL kind of hardwares imaginable,
8 thereby it render some Gentoo user with no driver
9 included in the distro. My suggestion is that possible
10 to change its installation seqence so when it discover
11 that the hardware drivers is NOT avilable, it will
12 AUTOMATICALLY download it from a certain website and
13 install it all by itself. So as long as the user can
14 connect to the internet(So we should MAXMIZE the LAN
15 driver support), his/her basic i/o device supported;
16 s/he can use all his/her hardware under Gentoo. It
17 will save all the trouble for new Gentoo user to
18 search all over the internet.
19 What do you think?
