exGENT version 240201/240125 Linux Live System is - as the name suggest - based on Gentoo Linux. The best thing with exGENT is the premier auto detection of hardware and the ability to relatively easy install the system to hard drive during a live session. (Calamares Installer). LXQt 1.4 is used as Desktop environment. Used kernel: 6.7.1/6.1.67.

exGENT runs on all "normal" and fairly new computers. They run very well also in VirtualBox/VMware.

INSTALLATION
The systems can easily be installed to hard drive and/or a USB flash drive in two ways. Using Calamares Installer (in version 240201) or an installation script in /root/install. The installation takes 5 - 20 min. (Depending on computer type).

ROLLING DISTRIBUTION
Gentoo/exGENT is a "rolling" distribution, which means that you can always get the latest software without reinstalling. Upgrade the system every month or so...

WHO IS exGENT/Gentoo FOR?
Experienced Linux users or those who really want to learn Linux.
