- openSUSE 11.0 nears beta freeze - many features are taking care of right now, bugfixes are often delayed - factory is in pretty good shape, bootloader saw a fix :) - installation is actively been worked on, automatic configuration in second stage and image base installation should work now. - we switched to lzma payload for rpm last week - we seriously think about dropping the one CD solutions and concentrate on the installable live CDs
Provided there is still a small iso for network install...
+ providing a live USB stick
+1 and the user can add things to it later. Question: if an USB stick doesn't boot (no bios support for usb boot), would it be possible to boot it from a CD boot only image?
This would have some implications I would love to have feedback on: live cds would be i386 and x86_64, the USB stick would be a smaller system to download as compressed i386 disk image. So I would not put office and games on it, but rather some rescue tools and e.g. wireshark.
Both flavors would be nice. One for rescues, another for demos. Both kind of uses will have followers, I think. In any case, we can add things to it. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
