Posted by suvi under Linux

A new important feature has been added in SystemRescueCd-1.1.0-beta8. It’s now possible to add your own packages to SystemRescueCd using the Gentoo-Linux package management system (SystemRescueCd is based on Gentoo).

The development tools (gcc, automake, autoconf, …) and the Gentoo-Linux package management tools (emerge, equery, …) have been added to recent SystemRescueCd-1.1.0 versions.
