antiX-26-rc1 available

Get them from here:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/antix-linux/files/Testing/antiX-26/

antiX-full and antiX-core isos (32 and 64 bit) available for (hopefully final) testing before release.
We’re really looking for any show-stoppers such as boot failure, installation issues rather than quirks or minor bugs (but please report any).

Both ‘full’ and ‘core’ editions ship with 5 inits to choose from (runit, sysVinit, dinit, s6-rc and s6-66).
All iso files include a 5.10 legacy kernel.
antiX-full 64bit also includes a 6.6kernel.

‘full’ edition includes lots of software, which some may consider ‘bloat’, be we consider ‘useful’.
Software includes firefox-esr for browsing, libreoffice, mpv for video, xmms for audio.

antiX has never claimed to be minimalist, but we provide ‘core’ for those that want full control over what to install.
‘core’ does not include a graphical interface and users will need a wired connection to access the net.

Enjoy!
