This version is based on a much improved base with better hardware detection and functional hard disk installers." From the release notes: "This release is not for production nor distribution on a large scale due to incompleteness. Please download this image and test it on your machine, I am particularly interested in testing the HD installer tools, Arabic localisation effort, missing applications, or any requests needed."
