Re: any lxde or xfce spin nightly build available?

 RC4 hasn't been built yet.
 I believe you'll need to run liveinst --no-memcheck from the
 command line
 to install on a machine with 512 MiB, as the minimum memory
 size hasn't
 been updated, even though less memory will probably work
 now. (I did a
 test install to a machine with 512 MiB about a week agio and
 things worked
 OK.)
 

Dear sir,

Thank you for the tip :)  I have successfully installed 
nighlty build 0409 lxde on my machine

It was running Fedora 15 xfce.  Now,  I have another question, I want to add 
FreeBSD entry to grub 2, but I don't know how.  I have tried to follow some 
guides but they are for Ubuntu and don't seem to work for Fedora.

The setup found Windows XP Home, and the reinstallation partition but missed 
the FreeBSD part:

[root@acer-aspire-1 ~]# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders, total 312581808 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

/dev/sda3   *96481287   20133886452428789   a5  FreeBSD
/dev/sda4   201338880   312581807556214645  Extended
/dev/sda5   201340928   202364927  512000   83  Linux
/dev/sda6   202366976   31258009555106560   8e  Linux LVM

Is there a nice template or way to add it so I can also boot FreeBSD?

Something like

menuentry FreeBSD
{
insmod ufs2
set root='(hd0,3)
chainloader +1
}

should do it, but where do I place this file and how to let grub 2 know about 
FreeBSD?

Regards,


Antonio

Dear folks,

I am looking for an xfce or lxde spin with a machine with 512 MB of ram, hoping 
this is ok at least for a livecd to install xfce or lxde to a machine.  I check 
in nightly-composes output section, but there is no iso to download :(

Anyone have a link to an iso, an rc3 or rc4?
