Sorry, someone else has the name Max who's very involved in the project :p

I have this 50% downloaded, but my Parallels trial is gone. Now I need to convince my mom to help (not buy) me buy it since I can't use my bank card online, and that means going by her schedule.

:(

Max Shanly then. :p

My mirror should be up in the next 9 hours, very slow upload today:

Excellent work everyone, I'm glad this is finally getting distributed a little :)

Has anyone booted this up yet? If so, some feedback would be well appreciated, perhaps some screens of you guys running it!

[Simon Veteran]

I am updating the website now to reflect on this release. Please PM me any mirrors to go on the mirror page, so far we have 2 (including war).

Is there a torrent out for this build yet?

Not yet Ksg - we have been through absolute hell trying to get a torrent to work.

[Simon Veteran]

Here's a torrent, I'll try and seed for about a week, or until the next Os X update.

DHT?

And we already have a torrent, hjaving 2 would be a bad idea. Thank you, though.

Hey,

DHT: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_hash_table

Basically it means its trackerless. You said you can not host the tracker for long so we need a trackerless one or a dedicated tracker which we don't have atm...

Take Care,

Will

Darn posts edits, I swear. ;)

[Simon Veteran]

Ok, we'll use yours, I'll cut mine and add yours to the website.

[war]

lol all righty then :)

[Ksg]

Im sharing for all :)

Now I'm a linux noob, but have tinkered in the past (as barney can testify) It booted OK, the wallpaper was not full screen (1280x1024) And I don't know if it is resizable yet. GIMP and ABI worked, firefox didn't.

[kinetix63 Veteran]

What happened with Firefox Metallithrax?

What happened with Firefox Metallithrax?

It just didn't start

[kinetix63 Veteran]

Hmmm, intriguing. Worked okay for me. I'll be interested to see how others get on with this.

Tried firefox, didn't work. Then tried GIMP - worked, then tried ABI - worked, then Firefox again and it didn't work.

[markwolfe Veteran]

Downloading torrent now, and will be seeding for others.

Will check it out when I have it all downloaded.

EDIT: Off to a slow start... Hasn't gone above 3KB/s for me yet. :ermm:

[Barney T. Administrators]

Hmmmm.... my Bittorrent says that the torrent file is invalid :cry: . I swear..... I'll have to get the .iso some other way.

[Mektoub]

Torrent isn't working for me :(

[Simon Veteran]

No one's seeding it, everyone seems to be getting it off me. I'll see what I can do, I only have 50% downloaded for seeding sake. Could I just replace the file everyone is downloading with the one I have fully downloaded?

The reason I know no one is seeding is because I'm not downloading anything. but uploading at 7.6KB/s.

[Alladaskill17]

Anyone have screenshots? I am not installing until it gets later on in the builds... just wondering what it looks like.
