122 <li><strong>Cooking 20080716 - Web boot and MPlayer</strong><br />
123 SliTaz project members are proud to announce the availability of a new
124 Cooking version, including many new features and bug fixes. This version
125 provides the boot option <code>web</code> which lets you boot SliTaz
126 from the internet using gPXE from
127 <a href="http://boot.slitaz.org/">boot.slitaz.org</a>. This new
128 unique service offers the possibility to use SliTaz in Live mode
129 (all in RAM), using the Live options to store your data permanently
130 and preconfigure the system. This new Cooking takes an extra 3 Mb so we can provide:
131 a multimedia player with MPlayer, a notes manager with Notecase,
132 a new version of Tazpkg package manager with md5sum support, XFS
133 filesystem support built into the Kernel, a 'man' command and a few
134 updates. This version requires at least 160 Mb to boot and run properly,
135 we offer loram <a href="get/flavors.html">flavors</a> for machines with less
136 resources. <a href="get/#cooking">Download SliTaz Cooking ISO</a>.

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

206 bug fixes and some new features. We added Asunder for audio CD ripping,
207 Burnbox to burn ISO images, a new boot option to let you load Kernel modules
208 at boot time (<code>modprobe=modules</code>) and the LiveCD now uses Xvesa
209 from Xorg 7.2. All the SliTaz tools and utilities have been updated with
210 new features. Tazpkg can repack packages from a running system, Tazlito
211 can generate a LiveCD distribution flavor with a few commands and Tazwok can
212 check for build dependencies when building a package from source. Please

214 LiveCD.</li>
215 <li><strong>16 Dec 2007 - SliTaz English forum</strong><br />
216 The project is proud the announce the availability of an
217 <a href="http://forum.slitaz.org/#idx2">English forum</a>
218 providing help and support to users speaking English. Since the project
219 is French based, we get a lot of feedback and requests from the English
220 speaking community that we want to honour. The forum has its own domain
221 <a href="http://forum.slitaz.org/">forum.slitaz.org</a>. The default
222 interface is in French but settings can be changed when you login with your
223 account. The crew is also working on the lack of English documentation.
224 Help and assistance are greatly welcomed in the project.
225 </li>
226 <li><strong>06 Dec 2007 - 2 days for a new ISO that boots twice faster!</strong><br />
227 2 days for a new ISO that boots twice faster. With the new lzma compression
228 boot time has gone down, we worked hard these two days to improve boot speed
229 and finally get SliTaz to boot twice as fast. So we uploaded a new LiveCD with a
230 new Kernel patch for lzma and a bug fix for boot messages. Some
231 tests gave us the LiveCD booting between 20 to 30 seconds on recent PCs
232 and between 60 to 80 on older hardware.

235 <li><strong>04 Dec 2007 - New Cooking with sound support and more options</strong><br />
236 SliTaz crew is proud to announce the availability of a new SliTaz Cooking
237 release. It's finally not the expected stable release because we decided
238 to add some more hardware support on the LiveCD, like sound and PCMCIA
239 support. A new roadmap is on the stove and a stable release should be expected
240 in March 2008, matching one year of the first SliTaz public release. This will
241 also give us time to bring you a rock solid stable version with all these new
242 features and more than 240 packages on the mirror. So, this new SliTaz
243 release brings you Alsa with its mixer, Alsaplayer, mpg123, Gcolor2,
244 pcmciautils, and a new Kernel. SliTaz also provides new options to use at
245 boot time and isapnptools for very old hardware like IBM GL300 6272/6282 or
246 P133/32M. All this new stuff fits in an ISO image of 22,4 Mb. The Simple
247 Light Incredible... SliTaz (cooking) LiveCD can be obtained
248 on SliTaz mirror. <a href="get/#cooking">Download</a>. Enjoy!</li>
249 <li><strong>06 Nov 2007 - Last Cooking before 1.0</strong><br />

251 release. This new version provides PHP 5.2.5, Grsync, ISO Master 1.2,
252 Busybox 1.7.2 and much more in a ISO image of 24,7 MB. We also prepared a
253 new theme and wallpaper for JWM and installed a Tango icon.
