Hello,

3 new test ISOs have been made available on 
http://download.sourcemage.org/ . The direct download links are:

http://download.sourcemage.org/iso/testing/smgl-0.9.4-i486-2.6.11.2-nptl-test3.iso
http://download.sourcemage.org/iso/testing/smgl-0.9.4-ppc-2.6.11.2-nptl-test3.iso
http://download.sourcemage.org/iso/testing/smgl-0.9.4-x86_64-2.6.11.2-nptl-test3.iso

Those ISOs have been made with the stable grimoire (2005-03-15 snapshot, 
just before test integration). Kernel has been updated to 2.6.11.2 and 
SATA drivers as well as USB devices should be supported out of the box 
(cdrom, keyboard).

On the x86 ISO, syslinux has been downgraded to 2.11 to solve bug #8098 
(waiting for test report on that issue from sandalle).

On the ppc ISO, the kernel version now support sleep mode on iBook G4.

On the x86-64 ISO, it now installs a pure 64 bits system and since grub 
is a 32 bits application, only lilo is available. The installed system 
has been reported to be fully functionnal. However, to use sorcery, you 
need to adjust x86-64 archspecs (see bug #7728).

To help ensure that better ISO are produced, please report your 
installation success or failure to sm-discuss AT lists.ibiblio.org and 
please post relevant bugs to http://bugs.sourcemage.org/ .

Enjoy,
Benoit PAPILLAULT, ISO guru
