havnblast Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 Chris Gianelloni, the operational manager for Gentoo's Release Engineering group, said the Live CD will be produced for the x86 and AMD64 platform and will be "very similar" to Knoppix, a Linux Live CD which is based on the Debian distribution. Gianelloni said this is the first time that Gentoo has produced a fully functional Live CD -- a "LiveCD" is already available on the Gentoo Web site, but this is primarily an installation CD, according to Gianelloni.The next version of Gentoo, 2005.0, will also include a graphical installer that will allow users to automatically install the same set-up of Gentoo on multiple machines, according to Gianelloni.

havnblast Posted November 26, 2004 Author Share Posted November 26, 2004 All I can say is about time - I want to try the 64 bit out, but don't want to go thru the install. I can use the live cd to see how it will run on my system and if all is ok, than I will install it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
