Hi Nio, thanks!! Ok... about 3 hours from now the ISO should be uploaded :) Rox now works... there is autologin and startx as well as... ISO being now 579.9 MB plenty small for CD :) whew... Yes there are issues, please document them :) Also, Nio... which file is run for OBI? I haven't tested the OBI part of the installer on the ISO it *should* work as I simply cannibalized your script for that part :) But... I do not have icons on the desktop by default.. so I'd like to add a menu item for it and make a 'Live-CD' version of the menu when it is all really ready for Beta :)
again, it *should* be about 3 hours and it should be at: torios.org/ISO/ToriOS-alpha.iso Thanks everyone!!
