46 <strong>4 November 2009 - New Cooking 20091104</strong>
47 <p>SliTaz contributors are proud to announce the availability of a new Cooking
48 ISO image based on over 2100 packages available in the SliTaz repository.
49 The full system has been rebuilt with a new toolchain using Glibc 2.10.1
50 and GCC 4.4.1. This new Cooking uses the Linux kernel 2.6.30.6 with better
51 hardware support and more built-in modules. The boot process has been further
52 improved and the boot time is now faster than ever. Major packages found on
53 the LiveCD such as Firefox have been updated to the current stable version.
54 Home-made GUI boxes have been enhanced. Tazpkg packages manager supports new
55 features including the conversion of deb/rpm/arch/slackware/ipk packages to
56 Slitaz native format. The ISO image includes a new Openbox, GTK and icons
57 theme for an elegant and more beautiful desktop. We have also removed
58 ePDFview and switched to an online PDF viewer. This ISO image, however,
59 is a bit bigger than 30 Mb (31.5) due to a bigger Kernel and many new
60 dependencies.</p>
61 <p>We would also like to announce that the SliTaz project has a new
62 <a href="http://forum.slitaz.org/">support forum</a> and a new
63 <a href="http://scn.slitaz.org/">community platform</a> where
64 everyone is welcome to share and to get involved! This new Cooking ISO
65 is as always downloadable from the website download section:
