Post by: florian on April 01, 2010, 04:46:01 PM

Tiny Core v3.0 is now posted at http://distro.ibiblio.org/april/fools/distributions/tinycorelinux/3.x/release/

tinycore_3.0.iso
tinycore_3.0.iso.md5.txt

Tinycore 3 brings significant improvements to TC users. Enjoy!


Change log for Tiny Core v3.0

* Removed flwm
* Added Gnome as new default desktop
* Removed fltk libraries (bloat)
* Reimplemented better appbrowser with Mono and GTK#
* Removed aterm (typical user in 2010 doesn't need command line)
* Included Wine in base to provide support for Windows applications
* Removed busybox utilities. Please install as extensions if CLI support is required.
* Hard drive "scattered" now is the default mode of operations
* Replaced logo.xpm with funkywallpaper.bmp artwork
* New boot code 'kde' to use Kde instead of Gnome

Files have changed, so don't think about using old backup.

All users are strongly encouraged to upgrade so as to take advantage of new features.

Looks like Ubuntu 10.04 without the task panels.
If I wasnt already convinced about the integrity of the TC team,I'd think that this was a bizzare April Fool prank.
