Feel free to submit patches to genkernel to make unionfs actually work on our releases and we'd be glad to make things work better in this regard. The truth is that currently, I'm mostly maintaining genkernel by myself, with patches from the community. I'm spending all of my "development" time with it fixing bugs. There is a re-write of genkernel in the works, but it is still in need of a bit of polish (and doesn't support 2.4 kernels, yet). > Such specialized livemedia could be useful for advanced users trying to > setup gentoo-based multimedia kiosks, demonstrations etc. Agreed. At the same time, there's catalyst and our specs already available. There's nothing stopping anyone from doing this. I haven't heard of anyone doing it, so it likely isn't as simple as just throwing the right packages on a CD. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Alpha/AMD64/x86 Architecture Teams Games Developer/Council Member/Foundation Trustee Gentoo Foundation
