1 Wanting to do a quick GRP install on a couple of machines this weekend.
2 Am told by the install docs that the GRP packages for i686 (or x86, its
3 a bit confusing) are on the Installer LiveCd.

5 Well I cannot find 'em. I have the livecd-i686-installer-2006.0.iso
6 mounted on /mnt/loop and the image.squashfs thats on the root of the cd
7 loop mounted on /mnt/loop2. I can't find a single tar.bz2 file on there
8 except a few, mainly relevant to genkernel
9
10 nick@storage /mnt/loop $ find -name *.tar.bz2
11 ./snapshots/portage-20060123.tar.bz2
12 nick@storage /mnt/loop $ cd ../loop2
13 nick@storage /mnt/loop2 $ sudo find -name *.tar.bz2
14 ./lib/firmware.tar.bz2
15 ./lib/udev-state/devices.tar.bz2
16 ./usr/livecd/metadata.tar.bz2
17 ./usr/share/genkernel/pkg/busybox-1.00-rt-mdstart.plasmaroo.tar.bz2
18 ./usr/share/genkernel/pkg/devfsd-1.3.25-dietlibc-kernel25.tar.bz2
19 ./usr/share/genkernel/pkg/dmraid-1.0.0.rc9.tar.bz2
20 ./usr/share/genkernel/pkg/klibc-1.1.16.tar.bz2
21 ./usr/share/genkernel/pkg/module-init-tools-0.9.15-pre4.tar.bz2
22 ./usr/share/genkernel/pkg/modutils-2.4.26.tar.bz2
23 ./usr/share/genkernel/pkg/udev-077.tar.bz2
24
25
26 I also looked inside the portage snapshot to see if they had been
27 sneakily included in /usr/portage/packages, but no!
28
29 So where the hell are they? (please :)
