I tried to install Sabayon from a live cd using the 86_64 mini ed livecd for my AMD64.
Video card: Ati Sapphire 2400
Installing the live cd there is no way to see the desktop.
I always obtain the root#
i can also install sabayon writing root# installer
after the installation and the reboot i always obtain the root#..
So the problem is that there is no way to start x..
It should be a problem of the video card?
Do you think there is no way to install Sabayon?
btw the same thing happens with gentoo live cd..
bye from Italy

Re: No way to see the desktop on live cd,
cause SL don't use startx
we use xdm - /etc/init.d/xdm start
we use xdm - /etc/init.d/xdm start

Re: No way to see the desktop on live cd,
so i have to write "/etc/init.d/xdm start" from the root#?
Re: No way to see the desktop on live cd,
well you shouldn't have to as it should boot to the desktop by default
