Release Information
Descriptions, release notes, roadmaps, sub-projects and a list of the Gentoo
Developers who work on the Gentoo release media can all be found on our
Release Engineering Project page.
Please consult our Gentoo
Handbooks for more information on what to download and how to
install Gentoo.
Downloading Gentoo Linux
Gentoo Linux is available free over the Internet. You can download Gentoo Linux
from the appropriate iso and architecture link below or, if you prefer
BitTorrent, you may see a list of available torrents at torrents.gentoo.org.
Gentoo Minimal Install CD and Stages
Our Release Engineering team provides minimal install CDs and stages on a weekly
basis. You can find these releases on any of our mirrors in
/releases/<arch>/current/. Not every architecture is updated
on the same day.
Since these releases are built automatically by Release Engineering servers,
there is some chance that a stage or CD may not be produced for a given week.
When this happens, just use the latest CD and stage available. More releases are
available on our mirrors in /releases/<arch>/autobuilds/. Use
this directory if there isn't anything recent enough in current/.

Want to be listed on this page?
For vendor listing on this page, Gentoo requires that you sell our media
at no "profit" as described by the GPL (reasonable cost to cover
expenses) or make an agreement with Gentoo for the listing. That
agreement could be one where you donate some amount to Gentoo or could
be free, at Gentoo's discretion. Vendors supporting open source will be
considered heavily for free listing. We do not list commercial vendors
who do not give back to Gentoo because we already have a Gentoo store.
If you are making a profit, contact the public relations team to negotiate an
agreement.
