Release Candidates :: DSL v3.1 RC1

Is Firefox 1.5 going to be included sometimes in DSL ? (Firefox 1.0.x is no more supported by Mozilla).

Hello,
I've burned the livecd whith DSL v3.1 RC1. And tried to make bootble flash-pen. It doesn't work. In the installation tool to usb. At the beginnig made the patitions, and the first partition is small for kernel (knoppix). And how to change script to make first patition lager? Or how to fix this problem?

It will be good to have Firefox 1.5 in the base system in the future so that we do not have to download it from the repository.

Updated files that may likely be in your backup:

1. .fluxbox/menu
2. .torsmorc

Also note that we are aware that this RC is slightly over sized.
This is because this RC contains both Lua/Fltk versions.
Once a transition is made to upgrade to the newer version, the older version will be dropped.

Special note: Because of this oversize special care needs to be considered if your target partition is not large enough.

Can DSL 3.1 RC1 be burned to a 50 MB disk? I've looked for overburning features and they usually pertain to standard 700MB cd's & 4450MB DVD's - Is this just a tester not meant to be burned on the small format? Thanx

I believe the Firefox 1.5 issue has been discussed before; 1.5 represents increases both in size and resource needs. 1.5 may be good for DSL-N, but with only 50 MB to play with, and a low-powered target, I don't think 1.5 is right for DSL proper.
