Customized Gentoo LiveCD with Gentoo Installer

Hi,

I've seen that Gentoo is running a project called "Gentoo Installer". I've got a question.
Does it exist any "Customized" LiveCD with the Installer on it, that working?

Thanks for reading.

Cheers
Rasmus

Bah, don't listen to those who say the graphical installer is for woosies. It'll be a nice addition for those who've installed enough times that you just get bored, create a xml and walk away.

The installer isn't released yet, it will be when 2005.1 is though. Which is fairly soon. I know that alpha has been working on theirs, so have the others. Just a matter of time.

Please also remember that the graphical installer is a primary release. Its bound to have a few bugs. If you want to read details about it, check out the #gentoo-dev and #gentoo-installer mailing list

I just completed an install using Vidalinux 1.2 for PPC on my Mac Mini. It was effortless and straightforward and in right at one hour I booted into a full GUI (Gnome) pure Gentoo desktop.

Don't get much better than that.

And I don't consider myself a wussy.
