I was wanting to put Gentoo on my net-book, but it does not have a dvd drive on it. Anyone know the commands to do because Linux mint's program is just not working so I was just wondering.(I have got a working Gentoo box and a Linux mint box along with my net-book's Ubuntu net-book edition.

Install unetbootin on another computer, then use it to put whatever livecd iso you want onto a USB flash drive. Make sure there is nothing important on the drive just in case. I installed Gentoo on the laptop I'm typing from with a SysRescueCD liveUSB.
