The gentoo-distcc-clug iso is now available for testing. Please download it and try it.
http://rout.dyndns.org/gentoolive/ (make sure you include the trailing /). There a 3 files, the iso, an md5sum and a README. The readme also comes up on the web page.
Chris H said he will host the file too, so that may be an announcement
later today. If you have difficulties downloading it may be my jetstart
connection which periodically goes down.
It would be cool to have some feedback
Please report errors, successes etc to this list. If the traffic gets
too big I will start another list.

Is there anyone out there who can host a small (50MB) .iso file I have developed for the gentoo installfest? I want a few people to download, write and test it. Hopefully you won't get more than 5-10 downloads, but if it needs fixing we might have to do it again! It would soon blow out my 600 MB monthly limit on the work account, and the home account is a tad slow/unreliable.
For those interested, it is a customised gentoo live boot cd, incorporating gcc and distcc. It is designed like a regular gentoo livecd (or knoppix) to run without touching the hard drive or otherwise screwing your computer. This means our server farm will all be running the same version of gcc, and it also means any machine can be put to use, even if it is normally a windows machine. It just needs a cdrom drive, a reasonable amount of RAM and a linux compatible network card (ie supported in the standard 2.4.20 kernel).
Anyway, anyone out there with a decent connection and a bit of spare bandwidth let me know. I have just done a few tweaks and need to write a README. Then I'll be ready to upload it and make an announcement.
Nick.
PS ftp access would be good so I can upload - maybe a separate directory with its own upload password? Demanding aren't I!
