Hi, |
73 |
Can't find anything, too. |
74 |
As last resort, if your "arch" is at at least "i686" you could use the |
75 |
liveCD-2006.0 directly (to install) or start it and using "quickpkg" |
76 |
make your own binary packages. Save them elsewhere, and use later. |
77 |
If arch < i686 can't help. |
78 |
BTW: check for "Kuroraa-0.2" or better "RR4-3.0b", the second is a half |
79 |
full DVD with many packages (may be even too many ;) - Gentoo derivates. |
