For those that chose ext4 as default file-system type for their boot partition, and are having problems booting their Slackware 13.0 distribution, I built a .tgz package containing the latest Grub 2 release (currently 1.97-beta4).
It also contains a default grub.cfg file.
Please download the file here: grub-1.97~beta4-i486-1.tgz for Slackware 13.0
It should also work for Slackware 12.x and 11.0.
Enjoy!
P.S. The package is based on the one created for Grub-1.96 by user mbvo on linuxquestions.org. I simply adapted it for Grub-1.97. I also provided a new description for the package and a simpler grub.cfg file.

I’ve finally found the time to make the necessary fixes and improvements to the theme of my blog.
I decided to not name it a final release just because I could not test it with Internet Explorer 6. I believe that the differences with this beta release and the final one will just be some test with that browser and a better code cleanup

Yes, this is the theme you’re actually seeing in the blog.
You can go and download it!

It’s a very long time since I abandoned Ubuntu, 1 year and 9 months being precise, although I continued to use Ubuntu derived distros.
I decided today to give Ubuntu 8.10 beta a try. Obviously, every time I decide to try a Gnu/Linux distribution it happens that a new release comes out: I downloaded Alpha 6 yesterday, I fell into problems with it and a apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade brought me Ubuntu 8.10 beta, correcting some of them

BD-blog is currently at position 32755 in Netcraft Most visited web sites ranking. This means that I earned about 20k positions in just one month! This is thanks to the link of my review of GOS published on Distrowatch!
BD-blog site ranking, top 30000
I’m very happy with these results but now I want to begin a new race with a brand new domain name! I’m tired of task3.cc, event if it brought me such great results and knowledge around the Net.
I will announce the new domain name very soon.

Time for a review. Thanks to the always useful DistroWatch.com service, I discovered a new Gnu/Linux distribution, called gOS. gOS stands for Good Os, born in 2007 in California. The version I’m reviewing is the so-called “gOS 3 ‘Gadgets’”, their third release. gOS 3 Gadgets BETA is based on Ubuntu 8.04.1, and the final release is to be expected in the next 1-2 months.
This distribution is built around Goggle apps and services, comes with Google Gadgets for Linux pre-installed, as well other nice programs, like Google Picasa, Wine, Mozilla Prism for Google web applications and Wbar as launch bar. I’ve never heard about this bar, it’s very quick and light. Good choice! The distro also includes proprietary codecs for multimedia content.

I’m very proud to announce that the first beta version of the final release of BD-shell is ready and available for download.
As always you can find it on the project page.
Remember that this has to be considered as a bug hunting release, every requirements has been successfully covered but I cannot test it so often as I would like to..
Grab the code while it’s hot!
