Why Knoppix 3.4 is delayed again ...

[hkfczrqj]

Well, when I heard that LaTex might bite the dust in KNOPPIX I started looking at QUANTIAN. This liveCD is amazing. Its based on clusterKNOPPIX so you can setup an openMOSIX cluster in no time and has tons of math/science apps

It's a cool cd. It has a more complete TeX system than the one on knoppix. And if you think that there is not enough software in a cd, this guy has a 'kitchen sink' dvd version of Quantian Anyway, I stick to the cd.

Cheers...

I dont know if everyone has seen the link which Fabian posted on another thread, but the CeBit remaster of 3.4 is here:
ftp://ftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/knoppix-remastered/

[alexlawrow]

I swear somebody posted a link to a utility that searches for duplicate files then replaces then with links to cut down on remastering size. If I'm not loosing my mind , can some please repost the link?

You need to get hold of the script called "freedups". It replaces duplicate files with symlinks I think. Search for it online.

so, is that remastered edition the same, as the one we expect soon? I've got one like that and want to know, is that I've got the same as that, last posted? It's with orange wallpaper and it contains gimp 1.2 and koffice... so where's the difference between 3.3 and 3.4 ct?

But there is no access to the mirrors, why - I think they are overloaded with uploading... there's no other reason that the mirrors are blocked... except - knopper.net site is broken, the links are broken, but I actually have connection with every server - but from different location. False alarm, everybody, the 3.4 isos are still not ready... wait, wait, wait... a week ot two... I'm tired of waitin'!! Can't Klaus come and tell us when it will be ready? Is this too hard?

hey, you know how life works here - its ready when its ready. not even a second faster. and no-one knows when its ready, only God. maybe. (probably not)

[gromeo]

I do not agree. It's very... well, why? Why? Why? It's so sad... I have to chek every 5 minutes at the knoppix site! Is there any e-mail notification possible?

Does anyone know what has happened to the links to the mirrors?

I only get "No input file specified" whichever link I try.

I have accessed the UK mirror directly and it appears to be fine, so what's happened to the links?
