Used: LiveCD-2006.0 GTK Installer and GTK installer from installer-20060625.tar.bz2 as downloaded by updategtkfe. Result (the same): GLI: July 07 2006 10:52:28 - Exception received during 'Emerge kernel sources': EmergePackageError :FATAL: emerge: Could not emerge sys-kernel/hardened-sources-2.6.14-r3!

GLI: July 07 2006 10:52:28 - GLIException: EmergePackageError :FATAL: emerge: Could not emerge sys-kernel/hardened-sources-2.6.14-r3! Cause: Portage snapshot used is portage-20060123.tar.bz2, but: No genpatches-2.6.14-7.base.tar.bz2 found in any of the mirrors. As far I can see, hardened-sources package with version 2.6.14-r3 is also non-existent in the portage tree. Possible solutions: 1. Put sources on the cd 2. Don't delete them from distfiles mirrors?
Has nothing to do with the LiveCD...
Anyway, you're doing a stage3 + dynamic + GRP... and there's no package for hardened-sources on the CD, so this would never work.
CVS has already been fixed so that it only gives you the option of livecd-kernel when you're doing a Networkless install (which is really what dynamic+GRP is). If you're not doing networkless, you'll run into this problem, but it's not the installer's fault. You hit the same problem if you're doing a "manual" install using the same portage snapshot. The distfiles track the live tree. If an ebuild is removed from the live tree, its distfiles are removed.
