Prerequisites
- Windows box with internet connection
- USB key (1+ GB)
Create Bootable Ubuntu USB Key
We'll use the Windows version of unetbootin, because it works without any additional installs.
- Format USB key.
- Download unetbootin for Windows.
- Manually download linux ISO:
- Gentoo 2008.0: r8169 (NIC) driver doesn't work
- Ubuntu 9.04: works perfectly with MSi Wind
- Run unetbootin and select ISO file.
Install Gentoo
- Boot Wind from USB (press F11)
- Follow the instructions in The Gentoo Handbook and on Gentoo Wiki except that the
-mssse3 flag may not exist for your compiler (replace it with -msse3, mssse3 > msse3).
