I'll have to wait until I boot up again to try this. Right now I have one booted off a recent minimal cd andt the other off the amd64-livedvd that was produced earlier this fall.... > If the live DVD uses GRUB, the config is at grub.cfg as usual. If it uses > isolinux it will be either /isolinux/isolinux.cfg or > /boot/isolinux.isolinux.cfg. using my old buddy "find" on the minimal cd I found this /usr/src/linux/vmlinux and /mnt/gentoo/usr/src/linux-3.13.6-gentoo/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux vmlinux.bin and vmlinux.bin.gz (hopefully no typos). On the lived dvd I found these with find: ./mnt/livecd/usr/src/linux-3.15.6-aufs-r1/arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux ./mnt/livecd/usr/src/linux-3.15.6-aufs-r1/vmlinux ./usr/src/linux-3.15.6-aufs-r1/arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux ./usr/src/linux-3.15.6-aufs-r1/vmlinux (a pair of symlinks) On neither is found an image or iso* in /boot or such..... I guess the minimalcd and the livedvd use differnet semantics for including the kernel and where it is written on the media. Additionally, on the livedvd (last fall, amd64) the /boot/grub/menu.lst when Irun "file menu.lst" tells me that: "menu.lst" is a broken symbolic link to 'grub.conf' curious... James
