Zenwalk Linux 6.2 is an up-to-date and improved version of Zenwalk 6.0, as we think that this series has reached the maturity level in terms of features. Here is a summary of the important changes: Linux kernel 2.6.30.2; ext4 as the main file system; the new Xfce 4.6.1; OpenOffice.org 3.1.0 (fast, optimized version); GRUB 2 bootloader with automatic configuration (will detect all your partitions and other operating systems); new Netpkg featuring a refined interface, rollback support and instant install with dependency control; faster boot (tuned init scripts); bus auto-detection in the installer (will choose appropriate kernel depending on the architecture, SATA, PATA, SCSI).” Read the full release announcement for more information.
