Thanks to Bob Johnson's (LiveWire) hard work, we now have livecd's available for x86 and amd64 that use the 2.6 kernel.
The x86 livecd can be found here: http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/experimental/x86/livecd/livecd-2.6_10-23-2003.iso
There are 2 amd64 livecds, one with only the stage 1 build (basic), and the other with all 3 stages (full). Which can be found here: http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/experimental/amd64/livecd/gentoo-amd64-2.6-basic-20031024.iso http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/experimental/amd64/livecd/gentoo-amd64-2.6-full-20031024.iso
The 2.6 livecd for amd64 should be preferred over the 2.4 livecd, as the 2.4 kernel did not provide the necessary hardware/driver support.
If anyone needs my updated livecd build scripts (based off LiveWire's 2.6a) they can be found here: http://dev.gentoo.org/~brad_mssw/livecd-2.6a+amd64.tar.bz2
My final comment is someone needs to help poor Bob out a bit, he's stuck at dial-up speeds, and he's done an amazing job with what little he has (Cable/DSL is not available in his area). How about someone hooking him up with a T1 or a Frame at least (Adopt a Dev program?)?
Have fun with the new CDs!
