TopasNet.ch is not even one year old and has attracted pretty much attention. The last few months, there were 5 to 20 GB downloads each day! Obviously, a ready-to-use Virtual Machine for Gentoo is in demand for many people - not only for me. I'm also surprised about the fact that bootable Gentoo CDs and DVDs ISOs are downloaded quite often! Don't ask me what the guys out there are doing with it...
TopasNet.ch is not even one year old and has a long history of hosts and hosting problems. First, I had started only with few links to upload-download pages which were for free in order to see if there was an interest for it. It was, but had I troubles with those sites, so I opened a domain at a Swiss hoster. But the hoster was getting hacked and abused so he had to leave his hosting business. That's why TopasNet.ch sometimes was down and not reachable. Also my nice little site has been hacked and abused!
To put an end to this story: TopasNet.ch is now hosted in good hands with a very fast and reliable connection. Enjoy!
Welcome to the world of Virtual Machines!
TopasNet provides some know-how and downloads related to virtual guest operating systems for VMware software. You can get here Gentoo/Funtoo Linux Virtual Machines (VM) providing minimal desktops which are ready to use. There are also some bootable CD and DVD ISO which are auto-generated out of the VMs. Everything here is for free!
