Quiky 1.4.2, "1.5-beta1"


This is not a continuation of Quirky 1.4, but first beta of 1.5.

Xorg 7.5 is cut-down, with 'vesa' driver only. The X desktop should startup automatically. xorg-server is 1.7.1.

qrky-142-all-drvrs.iso

This is live-CD with all drivers built-in. The kernel is 2.6.32.28 and has SCSI and all analog modem drivers. Size: 113MB

qrky-142-BABY.iso

This is an experiment, not just most kernel modules moved out to the "zdrv" but also many other drivers (Flash plugin, printer, camera, scanner). A monitor daemon detects if you need any of these and if so offers to download 'zq142228.sfs'. Result is to make iso smaller: 86MB

zq142228.sfs

Extra drivers. Only needed for "BABY" iso. Size: 27MB.
