Hi, I published a test iso image of crux 2.3 [1] Important notes: - Upgrade is *totally untested* so far, please choose a fresh installation if possible. That said, I manually upgraded a live system with pkgadd with no problems. - Same setup procedure as with 2.2, with the exception we now have a setup-chroot command which does the mounting of sysfs,procfs, etc and chroots to /mnt (feel free to keep doing it manually :)) - If you install xorg be sure to issue the post-install commands sugested in Tilman's howto[2] The following things are missing/different from what will be a real release candidate: - X11R7.2 is not out yet, so we're stuck with 7.1 - Temporally disabled madwifi - I did not spend too much time configuring the 2.6.19.1 kernel for the livecd; given the latest changes (in particular regarding the new pata interface), some review and suggestion would be nice. Apart from testing the prerelease itself, this may come handy since it should be able to bootstrap a 2.3 release from our git repos at 1st try.

See the "libata PATA" paragraph on: http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_19 -> I think we should stick with the old drivers.
