I downloaded Orvitux-2013.0alfha1-zovek.iso
First time, I used the fourth link on the downloads page.
Second time, I used the second link, and I let it replace the file.
Got the same results with both downloads.

md5sum did not match.

I couldn't get virtualbox to accept it as a bootable iso.:
"Could not get the storage format of the medium"

I mounted the iso file, but I couldn't mount the squashfs.
Code:
mount -o loop -t squashfs mnt/live/filesystem.squashfs tmp/
mount: /dev/loop1: can't read superblock


Could not unsquash the squashfs:
Code:
unsquashfs mnt/live/filesystem.squashfs
Parallel unsquashfs: Using 2 processors
Read on filesystem failed because Input/output error
read_uids_guids: failed to read id index table
FATAL ERROR aborting: failed to uid/gid table


BTW, I'm probably going to move this thread to the off-topic section (Nonsense), since it's not a Refracta announcement. I think the board will automatically create a link in this section that leads you to the new location of the thread.

Maybe we need to change the name of that section from "Nonsense" to "Off-topic". Comments?

comment:
I came to think that "nonsense" is not a proper term when meandean posted all kind of technic stuff there (and i do and did the same).

What would be good if you posted actual download locations of all kind of stuff (including testing stuff) in announcements and stick them as long they are valid. It might be my confusion, but each time i search something i got very hard times (perhaps they are even in announcements, and i am simply too confused).

back to the topic: I pretty much gave up on using all kind of distributions (not as they don't do it well, but as i learn other things which need a certain amount of time).

Yes, pae was enabled when I tried to boot the iso. I think maybe the download was bad. I want to try again, but I can't see your website, even when I disable noscript. Do you have a direct link to the .iso file, so that I can try downloading with wget?

Still can't get there. The browser acts like it has finished loading http://orvitux.uni.me/ (no errors reported) but the page is blank. I tried downloading the iso from a link in my browser history, and it downloaded for awhile, but then stalled. I paused and restarted the download, but now it can't find the file.

That last link works better. I downloaded the iso, the md5sum was correct, I could mount the iso and filesystem.squashfs inside it, and I could boot the iso in virtualbox.

I've only looked at it a little, but I have a couple of suggestions:

If you find another host, you might get one that does not require javascript for everything on the page. With noscript enabled, only a blank page shows up.

The help pages for the boot screen need to be edited - they all say Refracta at the top of the page and in the text in a few places, and the language selection page mentions using 'config=refracta-lang' which does not exist on your system. I recommend that you create a custom iso directory, and set the config file to use that directory instead of /usr/lib/refractasnapshot/iso. (Note: setting the language the long way, without using the refracta-lang script does work.)
