I am currently uploading smgl-0.10.0-test2 to the main server. The
upload will finish in approximately 45 minutes. After that, it will be
another several hours before it propagates across the mirrors. Anyway,
0.10.0-test2 is now officially released.

************************
PLEASE FILE BUG REPORTS.
************************

There are far too few bugs actually filed on bugs.sourcemage.org for the
ISOs. The emails are nice, but much harder to track.

This release is mostly a bug-fix release. It fixes the following major
issues from 0.10.0-test1:
* no more eth0-eth5 remappings and other oddities
* changes to the kernel config that hopefully will let it boot both
without an initrd and boot on more hardware
* the formatting of the step instructions has been altered, hopefully
improving readability
* the installer code logic has been improved a bit
* the 'back' command was renamed to 'prev', which is more in line with
'next'

There were also some other minor bugfixes. Unfortunately improvements to
the algorithm(s) for detecting the cdrom to install from in the initrd
did not make it into this release, as improvements are still being
researched. These improvements should make it into test3.
