Emmanuel Bailleul has announced the release of Zenwalk Linux 6.2 “Core” edition, a minimal Zenwalk distribution without any graphical servers intended as a starting point for building a custom desktop or server system: “Zenwalk Core 6.2 is ready! Like the plain 6.2, Zenwalk Core 6.2 is mostly new code (nearly all packages have been updated), and the base system has been slightly modified (ext4, kernel 2.6.30.5). The switch to LZMA for package compression has reduced the overall size of the ISO image to 170 MB. Here’s a summary of important changes: Kernel 2.6.30.5; LZMA compression for packages; ext4 as main file system; faster boot (tuned init scripts); bus auto-detection in the installer (will choose appropriate kernel depending on the architecture, SATA, PATA, SCSI); latest development tools… In brief, all you need to create a personalized build platform, your favorite desktop environment or a clean and secured server machine.” Here is the brief release announcement. Download: zenwalk-core-6.2.iso (169MB, MD5).
