They have the following features: |
| 4 |
1. Boot fully functional gentoo system. |
| 5 |
2. Hardware detection and driver loading |
| 6 |
3. Start up Web Browser (links in graphics mode) on local web server. |
| 7 |
4. Menu driven installation |
| 8 |
|

CDs contain a full development enviroment so that any software can be |
| 10 |
build and a rich set of tools for diagnostics and configuration. If X is |
| 11 |
supported then the X server can be autoconfigured. Accessing web content |
| 12 |
is possible from links. Most webpages are rendered with graphics. Links |
| 13 |
can be used to research information you might need to fix driver and |
| 14 |
installation issues. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
All software can be either run off the CD or be installed without building |
| 17 |
from source (build for Pentium). Installing a complete Gentoo system takes |
| 18 |
10 minutes. System can be later optimized by editing make.conf and |
| 19 |
rebuilding components. |
