Change log for v2.6rc4:

Notes:
You must have your tcz collection updated, i.e., all squashfs and all with 4096 block size.

Be sure to update your kernel..

My two issues have been resolved:
 (1) waitusb boot code is no longer needed to boot from netbook's built-in SSD
 (2) information in backup file mydata.tgz is correctly restored
Now I'll just use 2.6rc4 as usual. If anything else comes up, I'll write back.
Thank You.

roberts:
Great to hear. Thanks for the feedback and your help testing the coming new release.

OK, I booted TC 2.6 rc4 with waitusb=5 (same as I've done for all previous TC versions). As above I'm booting off a CD with TCE and mydata.tgz on a USB stick directly under root (sda1).

Extensions loaded correctly and settings were restored, even though I have the mydata file under sda1 rather than in the tce directory.

Looks good. Will follow philip's example and try my normal usage.

bmarkus:
It looks good. HAL works fine with the new blkid, libblkid, and libuuid without the former hal_support extension. Till now I did not find any problem. Good work!
