[edit] Why is the 2007.0 VM so big?

The download size has really not increased considerably over the last GentooVM that was made.

  • GentooVM 2006.1: 409 MB compressed (1.16 GB extracted)
  • GentooVM 2007.0: 467 MB compressed (1.97 GB extracted)

Though, admittedly, I feel that there could be steps taken to reduce the size a little bit (especially on the extracted version). If you're referring to the fact that the GentooVM images are labeled as 10 GB, that is simply the size that I made their virtual disk (so in essence, is the size the virtual disk is allowed to expand to before reporting being full); which is another aspect that I plan to reduce, as I feel 10 GB is slightly over-kill for a virtual machine.


[edit] No seeds for the torrent?

Guys the Torrent for the 2007 RC seems to be dead? Can someone seed?

Cheers! Stonie.


My apologies, the server I had setup as a dedicated seeder had a PCI slot fail (the one that the SATA controller was on) but has since been fixed.

[edit] stonie's enhanced vm

NO VMNET MODULES?
NO NETWORK?
How can one possibly call this enhanced without at least the basic network functionality?

In case ftp.stonie.net is not reachable (happened to me as well) or a bit too slow for you, download it from here:

You will need 7zip to decompress the archives!
