Normally you do not have to burn them on CD. In order to install Gentoo, boot your computer with a LiveCD and follow the instructions at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-x86-install.xml      |

| Re: stage1 Richard, I see. I have read the instructions. Thank for the help. from [ http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-x86-install.xml ] "Now, let us quickly review the install process. First, we will download, burn CD(s) and boot a LiveCD. After getting a root prompt, we will create partitions, create our filesystems and extract either a stage1, stage2 or stage3 tarball. If we are using a stage1 or stage2 tarball, we will take the appropriate steps to get our system to stage3. Once our system is at stage3, we can configure it (customize configuration files, install a boot loader, etc.), boot it and have a fully-functional Gentoo Linux system. After your basic Gentoo Linux system is running, you can optionally use "CD 2" of our 2-CD set and install any number of pre-built packages such as KDE, GNOME, OpenOffice, Mozilla, or others that you'd like on your system" In case someone does a search on stages for gentoo  deimos Richard Verwayen wrote: > On Mon, 08 Sep 2003 12:22:10, deimos wrote: > > >>Must I copy the Stage1 onto a CD, is it an image?
