kinetix63 Veteran Posted August 5, 2006 Veteran Share Posted August 5, 2006 (edited) Hey everyone, After a rather stressful night last night, I can now proudly announce that Shift Linux 0.2 FLUX is now available to download! I have created a torrent, which can be downloaded <Link Removed> (getting errors at this time) Known Issues: Hardware support is greatly extended, however "Virtual" network cards such as the ones in VMWare or Virtual PC may still not be detected. If you discover this to be the case, please register a bug. I am still not confident that this version will successfully do a hard drive install. If you find the option, unless you are using it from within a virtual machine, please do not use it for now. Boot Loader graphics can appear distorted or incomplete on some systems. This is a known issue, and will not affect your enjoyment of Shift. The vast majority of branding is still referring to Morphix. This will change in 0.3 Other than that, please ensure that you post any bugs on the Bug Tracker. PLEASE do not post bugs here!!! I hope everyone enjoys this version of Shift :) Paul.

Barney T. Administrators Posted August 5, 2006 Administrators Share Posted August 5, 2006 We are having trouble getting this torrent to work (missing key). The error we get is: "shift_02_flux.iso" : Aborting the torrent as it was rejected by the tracker while not connected to any peers. Message from the tracker: missing key If anyone can give us suggestions we would appreciate it.

Simon Veteran Posted August 5, 2006 Veteran Share Posted August 5, 2006 Firewall or something? I'm not a torrent user, I just use them when they're needed.

Barney T. Administrators Posted August 5, 2006 Administrators Share Posted August 5, 2006 Firewall or something? I'm not a torrent user, I just use them when they're needed. Well, Linux Tracker is offline, so it may be something with their site......

markwolfe Veteran Posted August 5, 2006 Veteran Share Posted August 5, 2006 Oooh! As soon as the torrent is available, count on me to help seed while I test on a different PC.

(Y) I'm with you, pal. Getting the file up is just a lesson in frustration.... :no: Does anyone know of another good, reliable torrent site to put our file on?

ms_old1 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Why don't you set up a custom Shift Linux torrent site, using a base like Blog Torrent?

Digitalx Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 demonoid is alright even though it isnt a linux website they will host it and have a popular fast tracker. the reason they dont run there own is because of the demand i doubt they have the resources to do so.

Simon Veteran Posted August 5, 2006 Veteran Share Posted August 5, 2006 There's probably some way it could be run off the Shift official website.

Barney T. Administrators Posted August 5, 2006 Administrators Share Posted August 5, 2006 Yeah, but I don't think that the official website is up yet...... I may try this site: http://www.tlm-project.org/ However Kinetix63 has the file and he is out at the moment. We'll get it up soon..... Barney Why don't you set up a custom Shift Linux torrent site, using a base like Blog Torrent? That would be great if I could get someone with a fast server to help........ anyone? http://www.blogtorrent.com/ Barney Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/484289-shift-linux-02-flux-now-available-to-download/#findComment-587759858 Share on other sites More sharing options...
