There is no need to wait for any release. You can use what ever environment you want e.g. any live distro, running linux,... to install gentoo. On gentoo there aren't release steps in the way other distros do. So go ahead, boot a livecd get the appropriate stage3 tarball and portage tarball and begin to love gentoo. If you are waiting for the new release of the installer, then I would recommend you to do it better the normal gentoo way as descripted in the handbook <http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-x86-quickinstall.xml>.Hi,We plan to eval Gentoo. We await 2008 final. The comment is, Gentoo home page gives no clue about status. Convincing people that Gentoo is "alive" becomes tricky because the final is months late and little motion on the home page. That's about all most people inspect. So bottom line, impressions of Gentoo are going south even before we test. Some sort of "progress bar" or chart showing bugs squashed and new reported, maybe?? At least some kind of "ticker" showing "expected final release date"? Counting lines of code or something? Personally I don't care when final ships - just knowing "present expectations" or status with an easy home page glance is all I ask. Thanks.
