Hi,

I published a test iso image of crux 2.3 [1]

Important notes:

- Upgrade is *totally untested* so far, please choose a
  fresh installation if possible. That said, I manually
  upgraded a live system with pkgadd with no problems.

- Same setup procedure as with 2.2, with the exception
  we now have a setup-chroot command which does the
  mounting of sysfs,procfs, etc and chroots to /mnt
  (feel free to keep doing it manually :))

- If you install xorg be sure to issue the post-install
  commands sugested in Tilman's howto[2]

The following things are missing/different from what
will be a real release candidate:

- X11R7.2 is not out yet, so we're stuck with 7.1
- Temporally disabled madwifi
- I did not spend too much time configuring the 2.6.19.1 kernel
  for the livecd; given the latest changes (in particular regarding
  the new pata interface), some review and suggestion would be nice.


Apart from testing the prerelease itself, this may come handy
since it should be able to bootstrap a 2.3 release from our
git repos at 1st try.

Regards,
Simone
