With some help from Nathan Laredo, I cribbed my way though porting the
Win32 installer on my own accord. Thus, I believe we now have something
which can be called a release candidate. Given how much stuff managed
to make it in, after all, I'm seriously considering calling it 3.00, but
for now it's 2.20-pre13.
So, everyone that can, please test it out.
In particular, I have not yet had a chance to test out any of the following:
- EXTLINUX on a file which requires triple indirects (17MB+ with 1K
blocks);
- SYSLINUX with FAT32;
- Any of the above with EDD (hunting for a machine with a bootable
EDD-capable device that I can erase without first opening it up and
removing a hard disk that I care about.)
The above test items are obviously essential before anything can be
called a "release". Help is appreciated.
As usual, find the latest test releases in:
