Since both of you agree that I never said what I wanted, I guess I'm guilty. Somehow I thought with a subject line like: Again about a gentoo vm appliance for vbox It would be clear that I am seeking a recent gentoo vm appliance for vbox. Sorry about so much sniveling as well. Last time I asked here about it someone had such things available but I never got one to work. I guess you all know that a vm appliance is a pretty narrow thing. They are seen as portable vm appliances to a more or less major degree. A ready made gentoo vm OS that you set in a directory and click. Vmbox comes up and you start the thing. No puttering around guessing about kernel options, installing the necessities etc etc. So is that clear then? I wanted URLS to such critters. And as far as google finding them. I do not have the luck you apparently have had. My best hit is gentoo profile 2006 running kernel 2.6-15-r1. Needless to say that will be a fairly hefty upgrade and a good chance of having serious upgrade problems for that big a jump. http://gentoovm.blogspot.com/2006/03/gentoo-virtual-machine-i.html OH, buy the way.. what is the most recent profile available?
