Version 091203 is now available for download from: ftp://rohrmoser-engineering.de/pub/XO-LiveCD/ and you can read the documentation in: ftp://rohrmoser-engineering.de/pub/XO-LiveCD/XO-LiveCD.pdf The XO_LiveCD project provides a sugar desktop for a wide range of Intel based PC hardware including netbooks. It is NOT a new Linux distribution like SoaS (http://sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick)! If you are looking for the latest sugar development you propably better go there.. This project uses existing OLPC builds which are maintained to run on XO-Hardware. To make these (unmodified) builds usable on generic PC hardware we embed them into a runtime-environment which consists of a recent generic Linux kernel, hardware detection scripts, Xorg configurations and additional startup scripts. The XO-LiveCD is designed to provide an easy configurable Live-System regarding activity selections, language support and installation of additional RPM packages. There are various ways to run the XO live image: - boot it from CD - create and boot a USB pen - install it on hard disc as an alternate operating system Release Highlight: - better hardware support by upgrading to linux kernel 2.6.31 - many activities updates _______________________________________________ LiveBackup-xo-cd mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/livebackup-xo-cd _______________________________________________ SoaS mailing list [email protected] http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/soas
