GNAP 1.7 is out !

GNAP is a Gentoo-based Network Appliance building system. It allows to
build LiveCDs or bootable disks with a customized network appliance
configuration in seconds. This is especially useful to quickly install
Gentoo on small-CPU hosts to use them as routers, firewalls, VPN boxen...

Starting points :
http://embedded.gentoo.org/gnap.xml
http://embedded.gentoo.org/gnap-userguide.xml

This version includes two major new features.

R/W overlay
It is now possible to specify the name of a partition from which to
overlay files at boot-time, allowing to write configuration changes back
to a floppy or a specific CF partition for example.

Easier extensibility
Add new functionality to GNAP used to force you to rebuild a complete
new core, which took both time and effort. The new extension system in
gnap_make allows you to build extensions without building a new core,
and the new gnap_remaster tool helps you to add extensions to existing
core files.

So emerge gnap and play ! Ask me on IRC for any questions you may have.

For bugs/patches/enhancement requests, use the Bugzilla "Embedded"
component and assign bugs to me. Thank you.
