We will no longer tolerate these kinds of passive sideways attacks on mods, admins or other members. Everyone who reads this can consider this your final waring. If you cant be kind and helpful to each other then just remain silent. If you want to remain a member of this forums I suggest a attitude adjustment. This goes for about half the forum and not just you, I'm just using this as a example.

You really do live up to your nick, pure-h.

So this beta is some sort of improved nUbuntu then? I think going Ubuntu really was a smart move. I can't wait to try this sh*t out!

Shmoocon is almost over... I hope someone is just uploading BT4-BETA to some ftp site

If you have a DVD drive you should be fine.

Well there's my problem right there. And the laptop does not boot from USB.

You can use a bootmanager to boot from a Sata / IDE HDD to USB. No dvd or usb boot required.

The Above has built in USB Booting as well as CD, Floppy and All HDD partitions.
Have Fun.


I cannot wait for this guys. Awesome. And debian based. Nice!
I'm just pissed that I am broke, and in the UK - otherwise I would have been there.

Also - Thanks for using KDE3. KDE4 "sucks ballz" IMHO. Thats just me though.

You guys are beyond awesomeness.

Brilliant.

You might want to go back and read post #33 and #34. I would then suggest you seek the forgiveness of the mods.

Just wanted to note that I got a copy of BT4 at Shmoocon and gave it a try on my eeePC 1000h. Worked right out of the box (well, with only one boot line change: vga=normal). Just picking around with it at the hotel bar, it seems to run very well. I'll give it a more thorough go round later this week. Thank you muts and all those who worked their butts off to get this version out there!

Also, on a side note, though I have never seen streaker69, there was an Amish looking dude sitting next to me during one of the talks...I wanted to ask if he was called "streaker" but was a bit worried that he'd knock me upside my head

No that wasn't me, since as everyone that met me can attest to, I don't look anything like an amish guy, but I probably would have still knocked ya upside your head.

will the shmoocon version be the same as the public beta release?
