My Fave Linux Distro Gentoo 2008.0 final release is out!

By Noob Nub
Gentoo is one from three of my fave Linux Distro (other: Fedora, CentOS). Finally Gentoo Linux 2008.0 has been released. This release contains numerous new features, including an updated installer, improved hardware support, a complete rework of profiles, and a move to Xfce instead of GNOME on the live CD. Live DVDs are not available for x86 or amd64, although they may become available in the future. The 2008.0 release also includes updated versions of many packages already available in your ebuild tree. Highlights: updated installer - the installer now only performs networkless installations using the packages and ebuild tree on the Live CD; improved hardware support - moving to the 2.6.24 kernel added many new drivers for hardware released since the 2007.0 release; updated packages - Portage 2.1.4.4, a 2.6.24 kernel, Xfce 4.4.2, GCC 4.1.2 and glibc 2.6.1." Read the complete release announcement for further information. Download the installable live CDs from here: livecd-i686-installer-2008.0-r1.iso (688MB, or this torrent if you use torrent client).

This guide was developed because even though I had administrator rights, I couldn't get access to certain folders. It was really annoying because I owned this system and Windows would not even let me access certain folders on my own system giving me an "access denied" message. What the h***!!
