If I can give you an advice: don't create a "new" livecd from scratch. Take an Ubuntu, Knoppix or similar live cd, just add these three files in a /gentoo directory, and re-release it xerox, with just the three files added and a Gentoo logo somewhere. This is what open source is for: stand on the shoulders of giants. Don't reinvent the wheel. Ubuntu and Knoppix are extremly widely used and well tested live cds, designed to support an impressive range of hardware. You don't want to enter the realm of unknown or scratching your head thinking about what obsolete ISA card you want to support. Use ready made live cds. They're shiny gifts of the OSS community, just like Gentoo is. m. -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
