|
pankso@621
|
86 The SliTaz project is proud to announce a new Cooking version of the
|
pankso@621
|
87 LiveCD. It allows you to utilize and test the work done in recent months,
|
pankso@621
|
88 it contains many new features, bug fixes and several updates. The
|
pankso@621
|
89 distribution now includes a tiny control center, easily managed WiFi
|
pankso@621
|
90 via Netbox and tazndis, a lighter version of ndiswrapper to use non-free
|
pankso@621
|
91 Windows network card drivers. Perl is now on the cdrom (with Lua removed).
|
pankso@621
|
92 WiFi support is also accompanied by support for NTFS partitions, so
|
pankso@621
|
93 mplayer had to be dropped from the default packages that make up the
|
pankso@621
|
94 heart of the LiveCD. The Tazpkg manager has been greatly improved, it
|
pankso@621
|
95 allows the preservation of configuration files, software to be updated
|
pankso@621
|
96 according to the construction (build) date on the server, log files to
|
pankso@621
|
97 be kept when the packages are actioned, and several fixes have been
|
pankso@621
|
98 applied. Also improved are the boot scripts, and the LiveCD tool
|
pankso@621
|
99 (Tazlito) is now more coherent. The Cooking repository now contains more
|
pankso@621
|
100 than 1100 packages thanks to the SliTaz developers. You can
|
pankso@621
|
101 <a href="../get/index.html#cooking">download</a> this new version from one of the
|
pankso@621
|
102 official mirrors of the project.

pankso@621
|
107 SliTaz project members are proud to announce the availability of a new
|
pankso@621
|
108 Cooking version, including many new features and bug fixes. This version
|
pankso@621
|
109 provides the boot option <code>web</code> which lets you boot SliTaz
|
pankso@621
|
110 from the internet using gPXE from
|
pankso@621
|
111 <a href="http://boot.slitaz.org/">boot.slitaz.org</a>. This new
|
pankso@621
|
112 unique service offers the possibility to use SliTaz in Live mode
|
pankso@621
|
113 (all in RAM), using the Live options to store your data permanently
|
pankso@621
|
114 and preconfigure the system. This new Cooking takes an extra 3 Mb so we can provide:
|
pankso@621
|
115 a multimedia player with MPlayer, a notes manager with Notecase,
|
pankso@621
|
116 a new version of Tazpkg package manager with md5sum support, XFS
|
pankso@621
|
117 filesystem support built into the Kernel, a 'man' command and a few
|
pankso@621
|
118 updates. This version requires at least 160 Mb to boot and run properly,
|
pankso@621
|
119 we offer loram <a href="../get/flavors.html">flavors</a> for machines with less
