Bootable Gentoo QCOW2 disk images - ready for the cloud! (Feb 20, 2025)
We are very happy to announce new official
downloads on our website and our mirrors: Gentoo for amd64 (x86-64) and arm64 (aarch64),
as immediately bootable disk images in qemu’s QCOW2 format! The images, updated weekly,
include an EFI boot partition and a fully functional Gentoo installation; either with no
network activated but a password-less root login on the console (“no root pw”), or with
network activated, all accounts initially locked, but
cloud-init running on boot
(“cloud-init”). Enjoy, and
read on for more!
