New background and updates

Am uploading a new iso with a new wallpaper. Limited at the moment so was only able to get a wallpaper locally with lock down measures in place here in the UK. Had over a thousand downloads in a week which given current world events is amazing. With extra time at home started looking at New background and updates

Building another iso

I uploaded another testing version by mistake, am going to upload a beta version that does not have testing enabled. Now that 5.6 has hit main repos. Normal service will resume shortly 😉

Kernel 5.6 Iso

Just a quick update to get iso up to date. Now running 5.6 kernel. Reading a lot about alacritty terminal and wondered if it lives up to its hype. Have run lxterminal for many years in ArchBang and maybe time for a change. Might add it to packages in an updated iso very soon. (need Kernel 5.6 Iso

Kernel 5.6.2 in Testing

With kernel 5.6 available have removed testing version. If you want to test out kernel 5.6 early then I may have something for you. Built an iso with testing and community-testing enabled. Am uploading to a new folder in files on Sourceforge named ArchBang-Unstable-Testing-Bets-WIP. As folder name suggests its very very beta so I would Kernel 5.6.2 in Testing

Spring release pushed back

In the light of recent events have decided to push back Spring release for the time being. Will try to update iso as often as I can, more likely weekly. All I can say is keep yourself and family safe. Am still here if you need any help, advice (ArchBang related)

New Kernel New Iso

I will try to keep ArchBang up to date as long as I can. With recent events I have to make sure my close family and friends are safe. Certainly if I am told to ‘work from home’ or ‘isolate if someone is infected’ then I will have more time to work on Spring release. New Kernel New Iso

Spring is coming….

Am still working on Spring release and trying to keep beta fresh. Downloads still amaze me, ArchBang will never live up to the likes of Manjaro or ArchLabs. They have far more support and developers. At ArchBang there is only one! Me! Sometimes it bothers me that I cannot give real support or a forum. Spring is coming….
