indeed that is the question. I have found some references to $CDBOOT |
| 8 |
and that var is definately not being set. I have just posted a baselayout |
| 9 |
1.8.6.12-r4 that is KEYWORDed -*, so anyone testing needs to keyword it |
| 10 |
for their arch, and add it as a dep to their livecd-stage1 spec file so |
| 11 |
that it gets emerged into their base system. The only change so far is to |
| 12 |
define $CDBOOT if 'cdroot' is on the kernel command line. |
| 13 |
|

This -r4 release will not be committed until we have a complete livecd |
| 15 |
patchset. And then, the patches will be cleaned up and committed properly |
| 16 |
to gentoo-src/rc-scripts and rolled into an official -r4 release. |
| 17 |
|

It's going to take quite a bit of testing, so anyone that has the ability |
| 19 |
to should definately help out. Use e-mail as a way to coordinate the efforts |
| 20 |
please. |
