Description Jay 2008-01-28 02:48:29 UTC
Upon loading of the Gentoo-Amd64-2007.0 i686 liveDVD, I let the system auto-login for user gentoo.
A warning anouncing that I was logged in less than 10 sec. appears, de to some unknown  gnaome error (unknown to ME that is).
I'm not able to submit any logs, as I've no software to browse linux partitions with from windows, and no linux version able to write to ntfs at this time.

1. Simply boot from the 2007.0 i686 LiveDVD
2. Let the system auto-login
3.
