Announcing Pre-Release Version: astlinux-1.0-8413

Significant update with Linux 3.16 kernel, will eventually become the new 
AstLinux 1.3 series.

The AstLinux Team is regularly upgrading packages containing security and bug 
fixes as well as adding new features of our own.

-- genx86_64-vm board type
1) Add support for VMware Tools (open-vm-tools 10.1.5)
2) Add support for virtio-scsi as a bootable disk driver, also added to RUNNIX
3) Add support for vmw_pvscsi as a bootable disk driver, also added to RUNNIX
Note: If you want to test with the "astlinux-1.0-8413-genx86_64-vm.iso" email 
me privately.

-- DAHDI version bump to 2.10.2

-- Asterisk 13.16.0 missing ari.conf crash has been patched and fixed. (Noted 
by David Kerr with previous pre-release)

-- DHCPv6 with Prefix Delegation
http://doc.astlinux-project.org/userdoc:tt-dhcpv6-prefix-delegation
Note: If you previously enabled DHCPv6 in the Network tab -> Connection Type, 
see IPv6 Autoconfig: "Assign GUA Prefix" reference.

-- IPv6 ULA / NPTv6 Configuration
http://doc.astlinux-project.org/userdoc:tt_ipv6_ula_nptv6_config

-- Traffic Shaper how uses fq_codel (Fair Queueing CoDel) for both 'htb' and 
'hfsc' types.  Give 'hfsc' a try.

-- The default serial baud rate is now 115200 instead of the previous 19200.  
Upgrading RUNNIX will default to 115200.

These pre-release images are for those who would like to take advantage of the 
AstLinux development before the next official release, as well as providing 
testing for the project.

The "AstLinux Pre-Release ChangeLog" and "Repository URL" entries can be found 
under the "Development" tab of the AstLinux Project web site ...

While these images are considered 'stable', the lack of testing will not make 
these images suitable for critical production systems.
