Subject: [Qemu-devel] ANN: DetaolB v0.5 is released
Date: Fri, 17 Aug 2007 22:23:04 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <46d6db660708171323n5fa7d9aeoa876dc899a8af4de@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

DetaolB aimed to be a "much-less-than-a-floppy" x86 linux live distro.
Now, it's evolving more into "a-la-slax" type of distro.

In less than 40Mb, you've a small yet functional desktop distro which
can help developping software or compiling the linux kernel.

DetaolB v0.5 has been released 17th,August 2007 on sf.net
=> http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=140321&package_id=155481&release_id=528334

Changelog:
==========
- removed lzma patch (I've problems making a working c++ uclibc compiler)
- upgraded to linux-2.6.22 + SLUB, tickless, aufs 20070813 and squashfs 20070805
- added perl, tcltk modules
- upgraded to busybox-1.6.1, xorg/kdrive r7.2
- "improved" boot menu: still log in as root, then "xinit"
- vesafb-tng allows to change the resolution of the framebuffer
without rebooting :)
- patches are included in the iso

This distro works in qemu, vmplayer, virtualpc 2007 and some real hardware...
It also boot in colinux with a 2.6.17 special kernel. A USB port is on
the way...

!! It does not work with VirtualBox: bug #512 has been filed. !!
