It has been brought to my attention that zen installer script is not working. The script was a bit of hack to start with. All it does is tests for a working network connection then locates your country based on ip address and try to set up mirrorlist. The zif script is then downloaded and … Zen installer fail
Hopefully 2021 will be a better year… New iso for 2021, includes 5.10 kernel (finally arrived in arch repos!), Firefox browser has returned. This will be my last iso until Spring, need to focus on real world things. Meanwhile I will make sure my source files are up to date and make any changes visible … Happy New Year 😉
Well will be glad when this year is over. This will be the last iso this year, might be some time before the next. My thoughts are to go back to a quarterly release scheme based on seasons. Have had so little in the way of donations I may have to consider giving up my … Last iso this year
Well it might be fate but I have uploaded a new iso today. Was hoping that 5.10 be available but as I type it is still in testing.

I am uploading a new iso (kernel update mostly). Looking at two more weeks before final release of ArchBang. I have been making isos for near ten years now. Think it is time to retire.

Am building via a Virtual Machine which makes build process very slow. No uefi support yet but I could always create one in the future if … ArchBang32 available
I am working on an i686 version of ArchBang based on Archlinux32. Have a working iso but it is very beta at the moment. Building and testing on a virtual machine is painful at best. If I get enough users needing 32bit version then I will set up build on real hardware. May not have … Anyone for a 32Bit version?
Another week another iso, updated and uploaded. Still getting messages of support for i3 version. Still think that ArchBang over its history has always been Openbox based. Will keep configuration files for i3 version and at some point so could build both versions. Other news I am working on a 32bit release, it is very … ArchBang Openbox or i3?
Today I have uploaded a beta Openbox version 😉 Hopefully I have managed to restore most (if not all features) of original ArchBang. Please test and let me know of any issues.
