  *** DEPRECATED ***

Please see 0.8 version Now available (30/June/2008)



Hi all.

An RC of OzOS it's available for download.
It's based on Gutsy and it's 64bits.

You can download now:
http://cafelinux.org/Downloads/oz-os/iso/

Torrent (click to get your hot OzOS CD)


This release correct/solves some major problems:
- Identify OS as OzOS and on grub menu.
- Repos of Cafelinux repos works now after install.
and
- New module "echo" for sound volume by default
- Wicd instead of Network-Manager (not useful under e17)
- e17 0.16.999.042,
- all recent updates of Gutsy
- some minor tweaks...

Hardy will be out soon, so i think it's better base the new versions on Hardy.
I hope soon i finish 32 and a 64bits on that base. 

Hope you liked.

I'll appreciate any kind of input on your experiences.

Many thanks.
Rui

OK, downloading now, on Torrent 100 KB/s . A question: how do I go about installing? I mean, can I update?, I have so many new apps installed on my RC1 that I wouldnt like loosing. Otherwise I should install RC1.2 and reinstall my apps, my home folder is in another partition. Suggestions? thank you. alex

I see you on my Deluge Smiley

Regrettably there's no way to update from RC1.0 to 1.2. Most changes/updates are on install process and default user definitions...

But if you have a separated /home (always a good thing Smiley) you can install RC1.2 and if you want to get back to RC1.0 home just mount your old one as /home or simply copy all with sudo cp -a /old/home/$USER/* /home/$USER/ (you need to adjust first mount point, of course).

Post on any doubts

Probably not needed, my /home keeps documents, images, and several apps that run in their own container directories (Lightzone, Rawtherapee), but oh I forgot , my mail and Jpilot data (the 2 most important)... perhaps it would be good to do the copy thing, I mean summing up to the new /home the /old home data as you say (sudo cp etc)

Can I do this? : install RC1.2, determine the new /home in my RC1 actual /home partition,  BUT tell the installer NOT to format that one, then hopefully every RC1 will be kept , is this absurd? it could be  Undecided

Yes it can be done, as long as it's on a separate partition.
Choose manual partition. Specify that you want that partition as /home but Don't put a check mark on format column of installer.
Only / needs to be format (If i remember well).

Another options:
You can use the installer to import old  home definitions, you'll just need to copy your docs later.
Or,
Install RC1.2 without set a separate home. After install you can add the old home partition to /etc/fstab and use the old one.
