Development Release: DragonFly BSD 2.1-DEVEL "Live DVD" |
| Louisa Luciani has announced the release of DragonFly BSD live DVD, an installable live image of the current DragonFly BSD development tree, which boots into Fluxbox as its graphical desktop: "The first version of the DragonFly BSD live DVD is done! Besides the full DragonFly BSD base system, the DVD includes an X desktop, a basic set of utilities and applications, and installation tools. Certain directories, are remounted read-write using MFS, and without swap this live DVD will not work well with less than 256 MB of RAM. This live DVD is meant to be useful for testing hardware compatibility, and some core aspects of the DragonFly BSD operating system. Please keep in mind though that it is undergoing development and should still be considered experimental. As always, back up important data before making any changes to your hard disk." Read the release announcement and release notes for further details and screenshots. Download: dfly-guidvd-2.1A.iso.bz2 (392MB). |

| About DragonFly |
| DragonFly is an operating system and environment designed to be the logical continuation of the FreeBSD-4.x OS series. These operating systems belong in the same class as Linux in that they are based on UNIX ideals and APIs. DragonFly is a fork in the path, so to speak, giving the BSD base an opportunity to grow in an entirely new direction from the one taken in the FreeBSD-5 series. |
