Distribution Release: Parted Magic 3.1 |
 |
Patrick Verner has announced the release of Parted Magic 3.1, a minimalist live CD with a collection of software for hard disk management tasks: "Parted magic 3.1 released with only minor changes from RC1. One of the most important new developments is the HDD edition. This is a new concept in rescue and partitioning environments. It's basically a copy and paste USB distribution for system administrators and is the future of the Parted Magic project. Version 4.0 will be largely based on Slackware Linux and will offer package management and most things you would expect from a small rescue environment. My honest opinion is the death of CDs and DVDs is closer than most people think and the dominance of Flash media with read-write is the future of any system administrator's toolbox. This forum post describes the new HDD edition." Visit the project's news page to read the release announcement. Download (MD5): pmagic-3.1.iso.zip (47.2MB), pmagic-usb-3.1.zip (47.2MB). |
