Greetings,
The CRUX team is pleased to announce the first release candidate of the upcoming CRUX 3.0.
More than 11 years after the release of CRUX 0.5 for i686, CRUX 3.0 will be the first release for the x86_64 architecture as per the 'CRUX next II' email at [1].
We do not have release notes yet, so some notes below: - an update from 2.8 i686 to 3.0 is possible but you have to rebuild all installed packages that are not part of the ISO - we will continue to update the CRUX 2.8 repositories for the near future but encourage all users to update to 3.0 - a 32bit compatibility ports tree is available but not enabled by default (/etc/ports/compat-32.rsync.inactive) - enable CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION in your kernel configuration, without that option you are not able to build 32bit stuff, even a chroot into a 32bit system, e.g. CRUX 2.8, is not possible without it! - don't reject /etc/pkgmk.conf, important extensions have been added
Please give it a try and report any issues!
Download the ISO from here: http://crux.nu/files/pre-releases/crux-3.0-rc1.iso http://crux.nu/files/pre-releases/crux-3.0-rc1.md5
Thanks and best regards Juergen, for the CRUX team
