14 DAY TRIAL // Robert Shingledecker, the creator, maintainer, and lead developer of the Tiny Core project announced earlier today, September 1, the immediate availability for download and testing of the first Release Candidate (RC) build of Tiny Core Linux 6.4.
According to the brief release announcement, Tiny Core Linux 6.4 Release Candidate 1 introduces a new ASCII penguin in MOTD (Message of the Day), addresses exit code issues that occurred in various cases, and adds support for outputting the complete dependencies of each application for the recursive_scan_dep script in the tce-load component of the distribution.
"Team Tiny Core is pleased to announce that Tiny Core 6.4 rc1 is available for public testing," says Robert Shingledecker. "This is a release, candidate. If you decide to help test, then please test carefully. We don't want anyone to lose data. We appreciate testing and feedback."
Those of you who want to take the first RC build of the upcoming Tiny Core Linux 6.4 distribution for a test drive should download the Live CD ISO images for 64-bit and 32-bit hardware architectures right now from Softpedia. However, please try to keep in mind that this is a pre-release version, which means that it is not suitable for production use. The Tiny Core Linux project is distributed as Core, Core Plus, and Tiny Core editions. The stable version is Tiny Core Linux 6.3.
