Comment 3 Benjamin Judas (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-03-08 00:01:46 UTC
Maybe one of you SPARC-guys has an additional idea about this one? 
Comment 4 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-03-25 11:24:29 UTC
Moving these so we can remove the "Install CD" component from "Gentoo Linux".

I apologize to everyone for this spam, but according to the bugzilla developers,
this is the only reasonable way to do this.
