Ken,
No, they are not current. Please see my announcement posted to all leaf
lists on the 5th.

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=6098788forum_id=5483

It still is missing old announcements.

Charles, the new distribution is a BIN instead of an ISO ? if it were
an ISO I think I know how to attack it.
Is there also an ISO for the new distribution?
Dachstein is available in both CD-ROM (ISO) and floppy-disk format:
http://lrp2.steinkuehler.net/DiskImages/Dachstein.htm
http://lrp2.steinkuehler.net/DiskImages/Dachstein-CD.htm
I'm not sure exactly what you're wanting to do, but it sounds like you want 
to burn a customized CD of Dachstien.  If so, the best way to do this is to 
start with the existing Dachstein-CD and update any packages you want to be 
different than the release distribution (see instructions for making a new 
CD in the Dachstein-CD Readme file).

Otherwise, let me know more about what you're trying to do and I'll see if I 
can help.

Dachstein hasn't been updated in a while.  If you're wanting the lastest, 
you should go with Bering or Bering-uClibc.

I think the Dachstein announcements are old posts that got relisted somehow 
with all the changes to the website lately (Mike Noyes is updating the 
dynamic php code that generates the web-pages, and the SourceForge folks 
have been doing lots of server upgrades lately).

Kenneth,

If you are pretty sure it's a CD image, you could always burn it to a
CDRW - test and see if it actually boots Dachstein, and then make an
ISO out of it.  That would likely ensure an image that you can work
with.

Otherwise you could post the link to the bin file on the list and
someone will likely look into it.  I will - but as things are hectic
at work, I cannot guarantee I will do it in a timely fashion.

Charles,
That's me recreating the old announcements. After I get them all into
the new website, I'll change the dates. I'm about half way through
recreating the announcements (49 out of 98 done).

I apologize for any confusion.

Ken,
Bering uClibc files are located in these locations:

https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=13751package_id=67534
http://leaf-project.org/packages/uclibc-0.9/

The new Bering uClibc website is here:

http://leaf-project.org/bering-uclibc/
http://leaf-project.org/bering-uclibc/bin/packages/

 Thanks for the explanation, folks.  I'm too simple to keep up with what 
 kernel revs are most recent.

We have a branch derivation image map that is a bit outdated, but should
give you an idea of what's active.

http://leaf-project.org/index.php?module=pagemasterPAGE_user_op=view_pagePAGE_id=2

 A very Merry Christmas to you all, or equivalent well-wishes for your 
 non-denominational mid-winter holiday of choice!

I hope you have a good holiday season also.

You probably want the Dachstein-CD Readme, which contains instructions on 
how to build a new CD image:
http://lrp.steinkuehler.net/files/diskimages/dachstein-CD/README.txt

...although this only works with 1.44 or 2.88 Meg disk images (ie: Not 
1.68K), and you'll need to start from a DachsteinCD iso image or really 
understand what you're doing to convert a floppy-boot disk image into a CD 
boot without making a couple of 'coasters' in the process. :)

Just holler if you have any questions.
