Hi all: Newest version for testing is at[8], featuring improved yum proxy support, and pre-loaded camorama preferences. Please replace au77 with au98 in the above instructions. Kind of wondering what install times your seeing, mine are in the 6-7 minutes range. Thanks for testing, Jerry [8]http://build.laptop.org.au/xo/10.1.3/xo-1.5/sparse2/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
