Originally I based Kororaa off Gentoo, but the last release was in
2006. At the time, I created pre-built binaries for it along with an
installer (pre-installer days). Then we later created a Live CD
showcasing XGL 3D desktop (at the time, long before compiz) :-)

something to do with the fact that the image is large and has more
than 1024 cylinders?

Awww.. don't be so hard on poor ol' KDE ;-) I don't want to step on
anyone's toes and Rahul makes a GNOME remix version which might suit
(http://omega.dgplug.org/), or perhaps Fusion
(http://fusionlinux.org/)?
