Hi all,

You can now get some test GRP[1] CDs available at
http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/experimental/sparc/livecd/sparc64/.

The ones you are interested in are
gentoo-sparc64-1.4_rc4-08Sep2003-cd1.iso and
gentoo-sparc64-1.4_rc4-08Sep2003-cd2.iso .

These are based on a snapshot of portage from August 15.

There are no changes to the LiveCD itself (other than the addition of GRP
and stages).

You can find documentation on using GRP at
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-x86-install.xml#doc_chap25 until we
get our own.

GRP lets you do a binary based Gentoo installation. It is indented to let
a user get a usable desktop in fairly short order. Some included
applications are XFree86, KDE, Gnome, Mozilla, Evolution and Sylpheed.

Please test and provide feeback :)
