[gentoo-dev] Gentoo 2004.0 -- Testers needed

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1393 bytes --]

The upcoming release of Gentoo-Linux 2004.0 needs testers as soon as
possible. The following parts have to be tested: 

+ The Live-CD and installing via Live-CD 
+ The stages and installation from those 
+ stage3 + GRP Installation 

If you want to contribute and have the appropriate ressources on your
system to test an installation, then we need you as a tester. 

We need regular users as well as professionals to get bugs and eventual
obscurities eleminated. If you find a bug or experience any obscurities,
please create a bug on http://bugs.gentoo.org. As product choose "Gentoo
LiveCD (all flavors)". 

The stages are already downloadable on
http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/experimental/x86/stages/ for x86 and
http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/experimental/ppc/stages/ for ppc. 

The Live-CD-Images will follow, however eventual bugs can already be eleminated in
the stages. So it would be good if you first test the stages. 

If you post a bug on bugzilla, please send an e-mail to
beejay@gentoo.org and seemant@gentoo.org including the Bug-ID and a
small description. We appreciate any help we can get from you. 

Thanks in advance, 
Benjamin "beejay" Judas

Which compressed filing system are you using for these LiveCDs?  Is it 
included with the 2.6 kernel?  And if not, where can I find the ebuild for 
it?

Thanks,
Stu

Just out of interest, what is new in the 2004 release?  Revolutionary or
evolutionary? :)

I don't have spare PCs, but if vmware hosts work, I can definately help
out.
