In case you are interested, I had problems with that appliance. |

[I'm running virutal box] |

I followed James W's walk thru of how to use it with Virtual box. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
There is apparently no `portage' installed which meant that emerge |
| 22 |
would fail since /etc/make.profile is a dangling link. Once that was |
| 23 |
resolved I kept getting really strange output from emerge. It appeared |
| 24 |
to be the output of something like vmstat or maybe the upper portion |
| 25 |
of `top'. Stuff about user loads and such... right after the first |
| 26 |
few lines of emerge output, and nothing was getting emerged. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Very possible it is pilot error; here is what the output of emerging |
| 29 |
gpm looks like: |

| 31 |
Calculating dependencies... done! |

And there it stays... so emerge does not work. |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
So it appears, so far, the appliance is not usable on Vbox. |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
Oh, I'm referring to the 4GB version. The 10GB version demands a |
| 45 |
password so couldn't even start on it. |
