Hi guys,

One week fixing most annoying bugs and improving:
- Sound system (JACK2+PulseAudio) control and robustness
- Hard-disk installer (need testing, be careful)
and much more...

I'm glad to share with you io GNU/Linux 2015.02

Both 32 and 64 bits are available for download.

Packages lists:
http://io.gnu.linux.free.fr/2015.02/io- ... kages.html (32-bit)
http://io.gnu.linux.free.fr/2015.02/io- ... kages.html (64-bit)

Get it:

Enjoy

Now when an installer is introduced, is ioGNU/Linux upgrade friendly. I mean is the system going towards a rolling release or it will stay to be a snapshot of a bleeding-edge multimedia packages. Where are the ambitions of ioGNU/Linux developer(s) going?

Well it's based on Sid so yes, it's a rolling release... if you keep installed apt-listbugs and, maybe, do not perform an update/upgrade every day, it should be ok.
I'm using Sid for years and happy with it.

But as always it depends of your needs and if your machine is for production, you should make backups before important updates. (an usb flash drive with IO Live in the pocket is always a good idea)

Otherwise I try to keep up-to-date packages in the repo, sometimes include new ones... Improve the various homemade programs... And of course there will be some new io GNU/Linux Live releases from time to time. (Maybe a new one in a few weeks, if I improve the hard-drive installer... still in alpha stage... so please be careful when using it... do backups and report me bugs)

Thx for the interest.
