Hi, I want to comment a thing:

When you insert Live Install CD, it is booted automatically (if you have BIOS setup correctly).
But this is not good in all cases. For example: I was in college so I needed to finish install in my machine remotely, I inserted live install CD and I ran /etc/init.d/sshd start script.

I did bootstrap from stage1, emerge -e system (pass to stage2), and finally compiling kernel and other system tools. When I rebooted remotely yo finish installation, liveCD was executing again and I didn't want this...

Could you do something like a "Press any key to boot from CD..." ?

Thank you.
