pankso@110 128 unique service offers the possibility to use SliTaz in Live mode
paul@113 129 (all in RAM), using the Live options to store your data permanently

pankso@110 132 a new version of Tazpkg package manager with md5sum support, XFS
paul@113 133 filesystem support built into the Kernel, a 'man' command and a few
paul@113 134 updates. This version requires at least 160 Mb to boot and run properly,
paul@122 135 we offer loram <a href="get/flavors.html">flavors</a> for machines with less

pankso@5 216 The project is proud the announce the availability of an
pankso@5 217 <a href="http://forum.slitaz.org/#idx2">English forum</a>
pankso@5 218 providing help and support to users speaking English. Since the project
pankso@50 219 is French based, we get a lot of feedback and requests from the English
paul@155 220 speaking community that we want to honour. The forum has its own domain
pankso@50 221 <a href="http://forum.slitaz.org/">forum.slitaz.org</a>. The default
pankso@5 222 interface is in French but settings can be changed when you login with your
pankso@5 223 account. The crew is also working on the lack of English documentation.
pankso@5 224 Help and assistance are greatly welcomed in the project.

pankso@5 226 <li><strong>06 Dec 2007 - 2 days for a new ISO that boots twice faster!</strong><br />
pankso@50 227 2 days for a new ISO that boots twice faster. With the new lzma compression
pankso@50 228 boot time has gone down, we worked hard these two days to improve boot speed
pankso@5 229 and finally get SliTaz to boot twice as fast. So we uploaded a new LiveCD with a
pankso@5 230 new Kernel patch for lzma and a bug fix for boot messages. Some
pankso@5 231 tests gave us the LiveCD booting between 20 to 30 seconds on recent PCs
pankso@50 232 and between 60 to 80 on older hardware.

pankso@5 236 SliTaz crew is proud to announce the availability of a new SliTaz Cooking
pankso@5 237 release. It's finally not the expected stable release because we decided
pankso@5 238 to add some more hardware support on the LiveCD, like sound and PCMCIA
pankso@5 239 support. A new roadmap is on the stove and a stable release should be expected
pankso@5 240 in March 2008, matching one year of the first SliTaz public release. This will
pankso@5 241 also give us time to bring you a rock solid stable version with all these new
pankso@5 242 features and more than 240 packages on the mirror. So, this new SliTaz
paul@155 243 release brings you Alsa with its mixer, Alsaplayer, mpg123, Gcolor2,
pankso@5 244 pcmciautils, and a new Kernel. SliTaz also provides new options to use at
pankso@5 245 boot time and isapnptools for very old hardware like IBM GL300 6272/6282 or
pankso@5 246 P133/32M. All this new stuff fits in an ISO image of 22,4 Mb. The Simple
