Anyone tried the new slacko 64 587?

#1 Post by EdD »

Just burned the iso to a cd and booted it up. Found the iso here:

Seems very fast, but it doesn't show my optical drives at all, and doesn't allow them to be mounted for the installer. Also has no Grub 4 Dos, so I installed it on a usb drive. It's quick and lean compared to the other 64bit pups.

Guess I'll use it for anonymous web browsing ( Firefox is included) until I learn how to make the optical drives show up.
Dell optiplex 780, Intel Core 2 Duo CPU E7500 @ 2.93GHz, 4g RAM, w/ATI RV620 LE Radeon HD 3450. Currently running a full install of Slacko 6.3.0 ( 32 bit version).
