Line 82: On April 3, 2022, it was announced that there would be a new official image with a GUI, called the LiveGUI image. This can be installed onto installation media such as a USB drive or a dual-layer DVD. It includes a large selection of software, including the [[KDE Plasma 5]] desktop environment, image editors, office software, system administration, and installation tools.<ref>{{Cite web \|title=New Gentoo LiveGUI ISO and artwork / branding contest! \|url=https://www.gentoo.org/news/2022/04/03/livegui-artwork-contest.html \|access-date=2022-07-14 \|website=Gentoo.org \|archive-date=July 14, 2022 \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220714062914/https://www.gentoo.org/news/2022/04/03/livegui-artwork-contest.html \|url-status=live}}</ref> Previously, Gentoo supported installation from stage1 and stage2 tarballs;. ~~however, the~~The Gentoo Foundation no longer recommends ~~them.~~this ~~Stage1~~usage; stage1 and stage2 are now meant only for Gentoo developers.<ref>{{cite news\|url=https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/FAQ#How_do_I_install_Gentoo_using_a_stage1_or_stage2_tarball.3F\|title=How do I Install Gentoo Using a Stage1 or Stage2 Tarball?\|access-date=April 20, 2020\|archive-date=January 6, 2014\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140106202051/https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/FAQ#How_do_I_install_Gentoo_using_a_stage1_or_stage2_tarball.3F\|url-status=live}}</ref> Following the initial install steps, the Gentoo Linux install process in the Gentoo Handbook describes compiling a new Linux kernel. This process is generally not required by other Linux distributions. Although this is widely regarded as a complex task, Gentoo provides documentation and tools such as [[Genkernel]] to simplify the process. In addition, users may also use an existing kernel known to work on their system by simply copying it to the boot directory, or installing one of the provided pre-compiled kernel packages, and updating their bootloader. Support for installation is provided on the Gentoo forum,<ref>{{Cite web\|title=Gentoo Forums :: View Forum - Installing Gentoo\|url=https://forums.gentoo.org/viewforum-f-14.html\|access-date=2021-12-30\|website=forums.gentoo.org\|archive-date=December 30, 2021\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230032138/https://forums.gentoo.org/viewforum-f-14.html\|url-status=live}}</ref> [[Reddit]],<ref>{{Cite web\|title=r/Gentoo\|url=https://www.reddit.com/r/Gentoo/\|access-date=2021-12-30\|website=reddit\|language=en-US\|archive-date=December 30, 2021\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230032132/https://www.reddit.com/r/Gentoo/\|url-status=live}}</ref> and [[Internet Relay Chat\|IRC]].<ref>{{Cite web\|title=IRC channels – Gentoo Linux\|url=https://www.gentoo.org/get-involved/irc-channels/\|access-date=2021-12-30\|website=Gentoo.org\|archive-date=December 30, 2021\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211230032139/https://www.gentoo.org/get-involved/irc-channels/\|url-status=live}}</ref>
