The LiveDVD is a user contribution by Fernando Reyes, coordinated with
RelEng to some extent. Usually updated in time of some conference event
with bigger Gentoo presence to hand out pressed DVDs with some artwork.

You can catch him as "likewhoa" nickname in the #gentoo-ten IRC
channel.

Have a look at the Release Engineering project:

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:RelEng

The project email address, IRC channel and list of members can be seen on the 
right hand side of the page.

I'm sure they would welcome contributions and will be able to advise on due 
process.

Hello everyone,

I noticed that the Gentoo livedvd is outdated. Is anyone assigned there
to contact? I would like to updated it, since I use it very often.

Likewhoa


Just the .config file, not the actual kernel.

The livedvd kernel sources are in /etc/kernels which is where genkernel puts 
them.

Hello,

I want to take a closer look at the (amd64) kernel that is 
used on the latest gentoo livedvd. The easiest way 
is to copy the kernel, /usr/src/.config and the /usr/src/System.map
files to the dev box for closer examination.

Where do I find these?  On the livedvd itself or 

If all I can do is copy the actual kernel off the livedvd,
I can use makeoldconfig to recover the .config settings
to the next (minor) version of the same kernel version?

Ideas?


curiously,
James

You have (at least) three options:

1) Boot from the DVD and copy /proc/config.gz to a writeable device.

2) Copy the kernel from the DVD and use
   /usr/src/linux/scripts/extract-ikconfig to extract the config.

3) Something else I will think of right after pressing Send.
