I've checked the gentoo site, and Ive searched via google, and come up with a bunch of gentoo articles, but no answer to my question.

what software comes on the gentoo i686 livecd/installer?

I have dial-up (yes, gentoo is usable on dialup if you move downloaded source to the correct directory before running emerge), and dont want to spend countless hours downloading software that isnt included.

it's eitehr this, or I just get an updated version of slackware (mine is hopelessly outdated)

You can get the universal installer, which contains basic software.

Im probably just going to get the slackware 10.2 4 cd set (from edmunds-enterprises.com though, theirs is the same but cheaper)

Im tied to much to slackware to see it go I guess... not to mention the livecd/installer is the only one currently available for x86 platforms (for gentoo) any way... and you cant get ANY from their store...

oh, I shouldve mentioned -- Im buying a copy, Im not tieing up my phone line for 3-4 days on a 56kbit connection...
