Release Candidates :: DSL-2.1RC3



Quote
18. Updated busybox - new commands, time, dpkg, rpm, rpm2cpio, uuencode and large file support.

Does this mean that the DSL base can now install/view deb and rpm files?

[*smile*] I love you guys. Will leave the upload running for bittorrent tonight (West Australian time).

Cheers and beers!

Yes, both dpkg and rpm.
Are there implemented via busybox, so they may not have the full functionality of their GNU counterparts.
Check their --help options on each.

I just posted the Qemu embedded version of RC3 to the release candidate area.
passwd seems to be broken. Wanted to change the password for root and dsl to be able to connect using ssh. But I only get the busybox usage screen.

Thanks for the excellent work!
