There are ways to make your own custom livecd for gentoo, although the documentation seems to be pretty slim atm. There are various threads on http://forums.gentoo.org
There is also a livecd-ng ebuild, that is supposed to do what you ask, but again, I hear the documentation etc is pretty slim. Try this thread http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=21327&highlight=livecdng and also do a search for livecd-ng on the forums, for other threads like it. kev ->-----Original Message----- ->From: Mitchell Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ->Sent: Friday, March 28, 2003 9:43 PM ->To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ->Subject: [gentoo-user] RE: replacing kernel on Gentoo install CD -> -> ->Hi list, -> ->Further to my post earlier in relation to replacing the kernel on ->the Gentoo installation CD. -> ->Would it be possible for me to construct a floppy disk with a ->kernel image and a copy of lilo on it and then instruct that ->floppy disk to boot the root partition from the Gentoo Installation CD? -> ->passing a command something like "linux root=/dev/hdc" or ->someting similar at the lilo prompt? -> ->This way I am not actually changing the Gentoo ISO but creatinga ->custom kernel which will boot the Gentoo ISO. -> ->Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. -> ->Mitchell Smith -> -> ->-- ->[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list -> -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
