    RaspArch :: Run Arch Linux on your Raspberry Pi 2

    A member on http://raspex.exton.se wrote this about RaspArch:

    Ive used Slackware, Debian, Gentoo, Ubuntu & Arch. I prefer Arch. Ubuntu is easier to install, Arch is easier to keep up to date. You do not go through big, painful, changes every year instead you just update, once in a while, make changes if instructed. Arch has most of the benefits of Gentoo without the pain of recompiling _everything_. When you do need to build a package in Arch its painless especially if you use one of the tools that support Aur (I like yaourt). Arch avoids the politics of Debian and Ubuntu and delivers a great Linux distribution. RaspArch now brings these advantages to the PI 2.

    ExTiX 15.1 64 bit is ready!

    I am having some issues with Extix 15.1 64-bit, after installing on Lenovo Y550 please check the Linux-Distributions forum here on linuxquestions.org

    Update:
    I think the download was the problem as the md5hash doesn't seem to match.

    PuppEX Tahr Linux Live CD with kernel 3.17.2-puppex

    A "review" of PuppEX Tahr

    I simply must cite a member of Puppy Linux Forum: This is astonishing - outstanding even, boots fast and absolutely fly's on my old X60 Thinkpad. Lost for words to describe just how good this is. Anyone that want's a real OS experience and more should try this. Still playing - looking better all the time.

    Yes of course you shall check everyone of my uploads with md5sum. That's why I always enclose a md5 file.

    Ok I will check it (once more).Nothing is wrong. Please download the zip-file once again. The file is of 60,3 MB.

    Thank you for checking. I did use Firefox in Mint. I am messaging you on my Chromebook right now
    so it will be later when I try again on the other laptop. I don't know what happened as no error was given in Firefox downloader in mint 17 mate 64bit. Maybe just a bad spot in the universe kind of day I guess.

    I did not mean to be a PITA. I just thought maybe something might
    have gone wrong on the upload is all. Because as a Linux distro team member
    who downloads and tests new developer scripts and reports back.

    I every once in while get a corrupt uploaded file. Hence the md5sum checks always.

    Latest News about EXTON Linux MultiBootCD 6-OS

    The link you are referring to (http://ftp.se.linux.org/distribution...1mb-101206.iso) is from 2010.

    This is the correct link now: ftp://ftp.svenskalinuxforeningen.se/...3mb-140615.iso

    But thanks for your report. I see now that the word DOWNLOAD is also a link. To the version from 2010 as you said. (It's changed now).

    Latest News about EXTON Linux MultiBootCD 6-OS

    Yes sir.

    http://multibootcd.exton.net/

    The oart of the page where Download is spelled out and is a hot link.

    http://ftp.se.linux.org/distribution...1mb-101206.iso

    I am letting you know this/posting in uzbl browser so copy and paste are limited in this browser.

    http://postmyimage.com/img2/611_4.png

    Edit: tested in Iceweseal 24.6 middle link I posted that I got from your page for the Download. Right click "save as"

    error still comes up so I am not sure about where you mention The Download link works for you.
    Maybe a country filter? I have the multiboot iso already and md5sum checks out OK so I am just posting info for the multiboot site page Download link I used. Which maybe others may think is a valid Download link also in Texas, USA. That was why I posted the server link I found with a search later on. Hope it helps you out. I am a great admirer of your work,

    Happy Trails, rok.
