Well, the main changes to the CD are in the device detection programs |
11 |
(I've updated them all) and in the package versions on the CD. There |
12 |
will be a newer installer, but you can "preview" it from the 2006.0 CD. |
13 |
All you have to do is boot the CD, then open a console. From the |
14 |
console, type: |
15 |
|
16 |
/opt/installer/misc/updategtkfe |
17 |
|
18 |
This automatically downloads the latest snapshot version and runs it. |

We haven't made an "official" snapshot for 2006.1 of the Installer, so a |
21 |
few things may change, but not much. For example, the "Extra packages" |
22 |
screen needs a little work. |
