The LiveCD's login prompt (/etc/issue) needs some information telling a user of the CD, that they can use root with no password to log in, it also needs to say how to setup dhcpd, ppoe, ppp, or have a link to install documentation or HOWTO's that explain this. Older Gentoo install CD's had "some" of this type of information, what happened to that verbage?
Not completed yet.
OK, we have some information now.
This bug is mostly fixed. Since it's a bit general, I'm closing it.
