There's a new test ISO!

Just tried. It works. :-)

Thanks for testing (I still mean to 'sometime soon').

Some jotting:

EDITOR setting shouldn't be in Native Language Support.
swap is not a filesystem. I would rename to "Format and/or mount
filesystems and swap".
After Alt-F1, Alt-F2 some warning "dircolor: no SHELL variable" and the
prompt is uselessly very long "root@sourcemage-install:/dev#". Why
located in /dev/ directory?
sorcery-pubkeys should be required and gpg verification should be enabled.
I missing netconf after installation.

"sorcery update" works, only write "cannot remove /tmp/sorcery-restore"
and prints strange Changelog history (it shouldn't, it is the same version).
"scribe update" prints very long Changelog history from 2003-08-18.

I missing link vi to vim (I choose EDITOR vim).
netconf and mc should be integrated from test grimoire. Generally
stable-rc is quite stale. ;-(

"cast mc" didn't work due to autoconf (I didn't run sorcery rebuild). I
had to "cast -c autoconf".

I would ged rid of iso version from /etc/issue (after installation).

Please file bugs for all those so the ISO Team (and Grimoire/Sorcery
teams, if necessary) can track them.
