Change log for Tiny Core v3.4:

* Updated appsaudit multi-select updates and md5 checking.
* Updated fluff to 0.7.8 with integrated file type and associations GUI.
* Updated mnttool to show all drives and mount launch filemgr via FILEMGR env.
* Updated mnttool to support labels and 10+ partitions.
* Updated wallpaper gradients and color preview.
* Updated wbarconf for control of text, zoom, and icon size.
* Updated ab2tce.sh to terminate if appbrowser is aborted by killing X.
* Updated mountables.sh to support labels and 10+ partitions on a single drive.
* Updated rebuildfstab to support unpartitioned but formatted drives.

Note: .profile has been changed to add FILEMGR=fluff for use by mntttool.
Update your .profile as deemed necessary, e.g.,

cp /etc/skel/.profile /home/tc/.profile


Special thanks to Brian (ixbrian) for contributed mods to wallpaper and wbarconf.

Very nice.
rebuildfstab now recognizes my LVM swap and ext3 partitions after putting 'vgchange -ay' in bootlocal.sh.

One little thing I see is that in AppsAudit, the MD5Check tab exit is 'Exit Update Mode' instead of 'Exit MD5Check'.

I forgot to change its title. After awhile I sometimes just can't see things. But that's where a release candidate and many eyeballs help. Thanks!

Guy:
I just installed 3.4rc1.

I get an error message during startup, repeated more than once.

@guy: IIRC that's not critical. He's probing the floppy disk for the first sector and finds nothing. I can remember having this "error" on nearly every linux distro, I think there's just no other way to look up if there's a floppy in the drive or not (no USB magic in that old kind of technique ;)

@others: correct me if I'm wrong!
