15 Well, in that case, go look at
16 http://dev.gentoo.org/~wolf31o2/releng/gentoo-2004.2-test3-zisofs.iso
17 and see how it fares. It is using the latest (2.4.26-r1) gentoo kernel
18 and genkernel 3.0.2b, including all of the *-knoppix stuff, and even a
19 new bootsplash theme. The specs/kernel configs are attached to
20 http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51396 so everyone can take a
21 peek.

23 Be sure to test the hell out of this thing and give me some feedback on
24 it.
