Just making it boot of USB is IMHO trivial... |

I don't currently have an updated LiveCD image. Even if I did have one, |
| 14 |
I would suggest one not to look at the end product rather than look at |
| 15 |
the process of making one. In other words, people interested in this |
| 16 |
project should instead look at the git repo at |
| 17 |
http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/clustering-livecd.git;a=tree . |

Yes, definitely better off following the instructions and asking me |
| 23 |
questions when appropriate. Expect problems as the baselayout tends to |
| 24 |
changed and stage 1-3 builds also tend to be _very_ sensitive to USE |
| 25 |
flags and package evolution (just ask the release just engineers ;) ). |

Horribly outdated compared to the GIT, we had a deadline and I kept |
| 35 |
working on it a bit after. |
