[gentoo-dev] Gentoo DVD

[gentoo-dev] Gentoo DVD

[Philip Charles]

This is in the nature of a courtesy message.

I will be offering Gentoo Dynamic DVDs for sale in the next day or so.

This DVD is basically an extended install-x86-universal CD with distfiles
expanded to over 3 GB.  The packages-i686 CD has also been included.
About 500 MB of the testing branch has been included.

It is dynamic which means that it is updated daily.

The DVD is aimed at the bandwidth and data-cap challenged.

I have been in the custom disc business for seven years and I am happy to
share info.

Phil.

[gentoo-dev] Gentoo DVD

[Philip Charles]

The DVD is built and tested.

Unfortunately I do not have the resourses to upload a copy to a public
site.  However, if someone is prepared to host this DVD I will post them a
copy.

Hi,

we have complete Bittorrent setup running on http://tracker.netdomination.org,
all i'd need is the .iso file (or a location i can grab it from) and a md5 
checksum file.

The problem still remains of uploading the image somewhere.  It is stuck
on my HDD at the moment.  I can just manage to upload the GNU Hurd CD
iso's, but a DVD is too much.  Could I post you a disc?

I can host it as well.  If you want to send me a DVD, and the stuff for a 
torrent, I'll put it on my server.

Can you handle the bittorrent thing?  I normally use jigdo.

The best way of handling iso images IMHO, is to burn the image itself onto
a disc.  So the DVD you receive would only have two files, the iso image
and the signed MD5Sum.

It's not a matter of being able to handle it, or not.  It's the fact that 
Bittorrent is the more popular of the two for a means of distribution.

And yes, I can handle it. :)

If you want to sent me a DVD, e-mail me, and I'll give you my physical 
address.

Bittorrent is more popular, but jigdo could be more efficient given the
number of Gentoo mirrors about.  Besides I can upload the necesary jigdo
files ;)
