[gentoo-user] problem installing from livecd 2006.1

2007-01-16 Thread Fei Liu 
Hello new to gentoo here but I got fair amount of experience with linux. 
Just wondering with livecd, do I still need to get a separate stage3 
tar.bz2 file? It seems I could never get a installation successful with 
just livecd. ( I normally use GTR+dynamic option to ask stage3 built 
dynamically). I can install through nfs or chroot mount (wget stage3 and 
portage file to local disk) just fine.


I am also looking for a good guide or manual about installing from 
livecd. Preferrably I should be able to install from livecd on a host 
computer without any network connection (networkless).


Thanks,
Fei

What about the official handbook?

There is a specific handbook which covers networkless install:
