If the LFS install is running, you can install Gentoo from within that |
| 22 |
(see the Alternative Installation Guide at |
| 23 |
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/altinstall.xml ). In that case, you can |
| 24 |
just download whatever Stage file you need, without need for the LiveCD |
| 25 |
at all. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Or you could boot the Live CD from a networked machine (I assume you |
| 28 |
have two network cards for a reason, so they must connect to something |
| 29 |
:) ) and run the Live CD from that, I think-- I don't know how to do a |
| 30 |
network install, but I'm sure there must be a way. |
