Watch a screenshot when Etcher is running. If you do that and later decide to install exGENT to hard drive all your changes will follow! Furthermore you can install/transfer exGENT to a USB stick with the dd command in Linux or use Etcher and Rufus in Windows. Now you can emerge (install) new programs/packages even while running the system from a DVD or USB stick. MOST IMPORTANT: In versions before 170309 the file system wasn’t writable when running exGENT live (from DVD). Anyway, I think exGENT Build 170407 can be of interest because of the change to Grub2 and the fact that it has one of the newest kernels installed. My old installer script will have to do until I find a solution. I started this build in the hope that I should be able to implement a new independent installer program called Calamares. The boot loader Grub Legacy has been replaced by Grub2. All installed packages in exGENT have been updated to the latest available version by 170407. Faster than most other Linux live systems. Despite this exGENT version 170407 runs surprisingly fast from DVD or USB. The ISO file is of 2620 MB due to the fact that this version has a lot of packages pre-installed. I call it exGENT 2017 Xfce4/LXQt Live DVD. It uses Xfce 4.12.1 and LXQt 0.11.0 Desktop environments and kernel 4.10.4. I’ve made yet a new version (20170407) of exGENT based on Gentoo Linux.
