Yes RC-1 is now available, though not yet on all the mirrors.
2 that do have it are
ftp://ftp.free.fr/pub/Distributions_Linux/Mandrake-iso/i586/
and ftp.sunet.se/pub/Linux/distributions/mandrake-iso/.
As to any differences between it and the b3 most are bug fixes, as well as
enhancements
to the kernel the most notable of these being better support for VIA
chipsets.

[expert] beta 3 or rc1

2001-04-09 Thread Klar Brian D Contr MSG SICN

I was checking the sites this morning and noticed all the beta download sites have
8.0 beta 3 with the exception of one that has rc-1. I forget which site it was though.
IS there a RC-1 release now, and if so what is different between rc-1 and beta?
The rc-1 is dated I think 4/8/01 whereas beta 3 is I think 3/31/01.
