I downloaded Resctoox.iso renamed initrd.gz to res.gz and vmlinuz to res. I moved them to the root E:
this is my config file
Code: Select all
title Gentoox
kernel vmlinuz
initrd initrd.gz
append init=/linuxrc root=/dev/ram0 kbd-reset video=xbox:800x600,nohwcursor,hoc=13,voc=11
title Sparkle
kernel sparkle
initrd sprkrd.gz
append load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 ramdisk_size=26215 rw root=/dev/ram kbd-reset
title Resctoox
kernel res
initrd res.gz
append load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 ramdisk_size=26215 rw root=/dev/ram kbd-reset quiet
i still dont see the resctoox thing in the fatx menu

do you have that space in front of title on the config file, if you do try to remove that.

no now i see your 'title Resctoox' on the previous line. It needs to be on a new line, just no spaces to begin with.

Its just showing dependencies.. so first you would have to update all those packages (which may not be 100% true cause it says it needs /bin/sh and /bin/bash )
But why not use
emerge limewire

Yay for reading the manual. RPMs will NOT work in Gentoox, forget it. Do what vplayer said
