[linrad] Knoppix 3.8.2 ; Re: [linrad] New Knoppix CD uploaded

['Zaba' OH1ZAA <zaba@xxxxxx>]

Great job Roger!

Being equipped only with a 44k modem at present
I cannot download the ISO-file for now. On the
other hand I have done a couple of hard drive
installs of the previous version and subsequent
edits of configuration files, which I will report
(if not bypassed by your new edition).

Of course the Live_CD is intended for testing
existing PC's for Linrad-operation, and indeed
even for repeated use. As such there is no need
to constantly upgrade the Knoppix-part of the
Live_CD; however I would like to draw your
attention to the newest Knoppix 3.8.2 which
was dated 2005-05-05 and which reportedly
uses a different installer. I have not been
able to download that ISO either.
