<title>Gentoo Linux releases 12.1 LiveDVD</title>

<p>
Gentoo Linux is proud to announce the availability of a new <b>LiveDVD</b> to
celebrate the continued collaboration between Gentoo users and developers. The
LiveDVD features a superb list of packages, some of which are listed below.
</p>
<p>
A special thanks to the <uri link="/proj/en/infrastructure/">Gentoo
Infrastructure Team</uri>. Their hard work behind the scenes provide the
resources, services and technology necessary to support the Gentoo Linux
project.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Packages included in this release: Linux Kernel 3.3.0, Xorg 1.12.0,
KDE 4.8.1, Gnome 3.2.1, XFCE 4.8, Fluxbox 1.3.2, Firefox 11.0,
LibreOffice 3.5.1.2, Gimp 2.6.12, Blender 2.60, Amarok 2.5 , VLC 2.0.1
and much more ...
</li>
<li>
If you want to see if your package is included we have generated both the
<uri link="/proj/en/pr/releases/12.1/X86_package_list.txt">x86 package
list</uri>, and <uri
link="/proj/en/pr/releases/12.1/AMD64_package_list.txt">amd64 package
list</uri>. You may also be interested in checking out the <uri
link="/proj/en/pr/releases/12.1/faq.xml">FAQ</uri>.
There is no new artwork for the 12.1 release, but you can still get the
<uri link="/proj/en/pr/releases/12.0/graphics.xml">12.0 artwork</uri> plus
DVD cases and covers for the 12.0 release.
</li>
<li><b>Special Features:</b>
<ul>
<li>
Gentoo Install Wizard!
</li>
<li>
Writable file systems using AUFS so you can emerge new packages!
</li>
<li>
Persistence for <path>$HOME</path> is available; press F9 for more info!
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
The LiveDVD is <b>available in two flavors</b>: a hybrid x86/x86_64 version, and
an x86_64 multi lib version. The <path>livedvd-x86-amd64-32ul-12.1</path> version
will work on 32-bit x86 or 64-bit x86_64. If your CPU architecture is x86, then
boot with the default <c>gentoo</c> kernel. If your arch is <uri
link="/doc/en/gentoo-amd64-faq.xml#difference">amd64</uri>, boot with the
<c>gentoo64</c> kernel. This means you can boot a 64-bit kernel and install a
customized 64-bit user land while using the provided 32-bit user land. The
<path>livedvd-amd64-multilib-12.1</path> version is for x86_64 only.
</p>
<p>

<uri link="http://bouncer.gentoo.org/fetch/gentoo-12.1-livedvd/x86/">x86
image</uri> or <uri
