Hi Susan, You say you are not a systems girl. I have learned a lot from your mails. Also, you "always" take the time to consider "which" list to post to. Thanks! :-) It helps a great deal here. Hi Quentin, The Beta is showing great promise. Notes: 4) Availability to pass boot options at install? 5) F-spot & Mono applications? 6) Main Menu > Other menu. Remove or customize. 7) FreeWheeling needs feedback on exit of application. (post on forum). 64 Studio 3.0 Beta 2 released. 8) Kernel upgrade path is problematic. I suppose the kernel error can be expected when "all in all" the bigger picture of the changes to the beta are considered. Long time support, stable base, and new kernel. :-) Well worth the effort, time, and investment for future releases. 64studio stable, sounds great to me. Cheers! dave. _______________________________________________ 64studio-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-devel
