No. You should not be using livecd/type: gentoo-release-minimal when
you aren't building a Gentoo release. There is generic-livecd for
*anything* that is not official Gentoo media. The basic premise is that
the official media requires some things and does some things that users
will not want. If you're using gentoo-release-* and something is being
overwritten, you're pretty much going to get a simple response from me.
Don't use gentoo-release-* as it is doing what is expected.
