Kongoni GNU/Linux是基于Slackware的面向桌面的GNU/Linux发行和自启动运行光盘。其主要特性包括一份图形化安装程序，Kongoni集 成设置系统（KISS），以及一份易于使用的Ports安装图形用户界面（PIG）。该发行的包管理系统，其主要的概念源自BSD ports，这包括一份直观的图形化包安装程序，它能从用户系统上的源代码进行编译安装。Kongoni的本意是修纳语中的gnu（或者说是角马），该发 行只包括那些遵循自由软件基金会关于软件自由的定义的软件。详细如下： Kongoni 1.12.3 RC2 默认使用 GRUB2 引导系统。此外值得注意的是 Kongoni 1.12.3 RC2 删除了所有带有版权的，或者不开源的东西，比如说解码器。 Kongoni 1.12.3-rc2 (Cicero) it’s out in the wildIt’s been a while, but it’s here. I know that the last time I said the next release most probably will be the stable one, but because again there are some major changes to Kongoni, I would prefer to call this one also an Release Candidate and in this case RC2. To start with the main changes in Kongoni, the top of the list has to be taken by GRUB2 replacing Lilo. Yes, Kongoni now uses GRUB2 as the default boot loader and also has a very good OS detection setup. The setup it’s similar to Debian and Ubuntu, because seems Debian developed os-prober and the guys from GRUB included os-prober into grub scripts, to be more precise in /etc/grub.d/. This also means that the installer had to be modified to use GRUB2 not Lilo, when installing the system, which of course was done and is working very well. This new setup, will enable dual and multi boot, also because I added GRUB2, KSI (Kongoni System Installer) had to be modified, so now when the system installs, it will try to detect all OSes installed and set them up in grub. Now you can have dual or multi boot using Kongoni, very similar to how it works in Ubuntu/Debian/Fedora. Another major modification done to Kongoni, is moving from the classic kernel, found at kernel.org to the FSF kernel, which has removed all of the non-free firmware. Also removed from git repository any trace of non-free software and firmware. This means that there will be no Adobe Flash, no radeon non-free firmware, no non-free codecs and so on. Everything is now open source or free. 点击进入 Kongoni 项目主页 |
