---- Page affected: AcInfo ---- Diffs: ================================================================ Current Ac Release Manager is [wiki:hawk Hawk]. - == PLD 2.0 RC1 == + == PLD 2.0 == - On March 23rd PLD Linux Distribution team has announced release of PLD Linux 2.0 RC1 isos. [ftp://ftp.iso.pld-linux.org/2.0/ Ftp] resources contain 11 CDs for each architecture (i386, i586, i686, athlon, amd64 and ppc), miniiso (for i386, i586, i686 and athlon), DVD (for i686, amd64, ppc) and 14 CDs or 2 DVDs of source rpm packages. + On April 1st 2007 PLD/Linux 2.0 has been marked as stable. It will take up to three weeks before CD and DVD images will be available on our [ftp://ftp.iso.pld-linux.org/2.0/ FTP] for download. - Known bugs: - - * PPC isos are not bootable (will be fixed in next release) - * installation from i686 DVD iso fails on some systems (installer still have some serious problems, most of them should be fixed in RC2) - * SMP version of 2.6 kernel hangs on non Intel main boards (new, completly reworked kernel packages are almost ready) - - == Roadmap == - - Due to many changes/problems/delays there will be no more RCs. Next version will be stable version. It didn't make it before October because Someone(TM) was updating only x86/amd64/ppc part of kernel.spec ignoring sparc and alpha. Now kernel packages are ready and only following things are blocking Ac release: - - * installer doesn't fit on floppies anymore (I'm working on solution. No, using bz2, lzma, etc. would not help here, root fs is simply too big) - * there are still broken dependencies in main tree, these must be fixed for all architectures - * TODO list for [wiki:/BuilderTODO AC-builders] - - I really wanted to generate ISOs before end of 2006, but that would mean Ac being outdated on its release date (and I don't want that to happen). If solving all of the problems listed above will go smoothly, then Ac ISOs should hit FTP on January, but since everything may happen I can't guarantee that date. However, February is '''a must'''. - - Update: due to repeating problems with amd64 builder Ac will be delayed again. Sorry folks and yes, I know that Ac looks more like NEST. - _______________________________________________ pld-cvs-commit mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-cvs-commit
