I think you've gotten confused by which console you are working on. Normally the live CD starts several consoles (6?), that are accessible on Alt+F1 through Alt+F6. (The Ctrl+Alt combination is only needed when switching from X to a console). So most likely, you were working on tty1 (Alt+F1). -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
