91 <li><strong>31 Dec 2008 - Cooking 20081231 - Wifi and NTFS support</strong><br />
92 The SliTaz project is proud to announce a new Cooking version of the
93 LiveCD. It allows you to utilize and test the work done in recent months,
94 it contains many new features, bug fixes and several updates. The
95 distribution now includes a tiny control center, easily managed WiFi
96 via Netbox and tazndis, a lighter version of ndiswrapper to use non-free
97 Windows network card drivers. Perl is now on the cdrom (with Lua removed).
98 WiFi support is also accompanied by support for NTFS partitions, so
99 mplayer had to be dropped from the default packages that make up the
100 heart of the LiveCD. The Tazpkg manager has been greatly improved, it
101 allows the preservation of configuration files, software to be updated
102 according to the construction (build) date on the server, log files to
103 be kept when the packages are actioned, and several fixes have been
104 applied. Also improved are the boot scripts, and the LiveCD tool
105 (Tazlito) is now more coherent. The Cooking repository now contains more
106 than 1100 packages thanks to the SliTaz developers. You can
107 <a href="../get/index.html#cooking">download</a> this new version from one of the
108 official mirrors of the project.
109 </li>
110 <li><strong>16 Jul 2008 - Cooking 20080716 - Web boot and MPlayer</strong><br />
111 SliTaz project members are proud to announce the availability of a new
112 Cooking version, including many new features and bug fixes. This version
113 provides the boot option <code>web</code> which lets you boot SliTaz
114 from the internet using gPXE from
115 <a href="http://boot.slitaz.org/">boot.slitaz.org</a>. This new
116 unique service offers the possibility to use SliTaz in Live mode
117 (all in RAM), using the Live options to store your data permanently
118 and preconfigure the system. This new Cooking takes an extra 3 Mb so we can provide:
119 a multimedia player with MPlayer, a notes manager with Notecase,
120 a new version of Tazpkg package manager with md5sum support, XFS
121 filesystem support built into the Kernel, a 'man' command and a few
122 updates. This version requires at least 160 Mb to boot and run properly,
123 we offer loram <a href="../get/flavors.html">flavors</a> for machines with less
124 resources. <a href="../get/index.html#cooking">Download SliTaz Cooking ISO</a>.

126 <li><strong>26 Jun 2008 - Cooking 20080626 with new Kernel</strong><br />
127 Summer time is here and also the new Cooking from the 26 June. A lot
128 of work has been done to improve user experience. This Cooking version
129 provides a new Kernel (2.6.25.5) with many new built-in drivers and
130 modules, linux package was also split to have a fairly modular Kernel.
131 Default user has changed to <code>tux</code> and the new option
132 <code>user=name</code> lets you choose the default user name. Most
133 of the Slitaz utils and tools have been improved: tazpkgbox provides
134 some new commands for package management and bootfloppybox can be used in
135 text mode, Netbox wifi and PPPoE support are now both working well and
136 a new function called zeroconf is available. Most packages are up-to-date
137 and Firefox 3.0 is part of the 25.2 Mb ISO. Cooking version can be
138 <a href="../get/index.html#cooking">downloaded</a> from SliTaz mirror. Bugs can
139 be reported on SliTaz Bug Tracking System:
