Re: Oyster Release News
Thanks, I'll check what's going on there.
This overview is definitely failsafe: http://linuxbbq.org/releases/

Re: Oyster Release News
i just checked linuxbbq.org > releases, and don't see where it is linked wrong. for example, the release-page just links to the oyster iso: http://linuxbbq.org/release_linuxbbq-0.5-oyster64.php
could you be more specific as to which link you mean mr neily?

Re: Oyster Release News
Sorry my mistake.
It appears that the 64bit Oyster release has the Escargot Grub.

Re: Oyster Release News
aaah yes, now i understand. that is indeed so. machinebacon will probably be able to explain this better than i can. probably just forgotten to change it, while working on the important stuff ;)

Re: Oyster Release News
Oh, the labels in the boot menu?
Yes, that's because I used the same config files for Oyster (it stems from Escargot). Simply ignore them, these things are purely cosmetic (like the /etc/issue or the window label of the installer in later versions) and have no impact on the live system/installation. Anyway, the "Roast Your Own" requires to edit the isolinux.cfg file for those who want to produce a distributable ISO.

Re: Oyster Release News
Thanks, glad you like it!
You can choose other window managers to go with razorqt, by the way. Openbox is their standard (or eggwm, which didn't build stable in Sid), but it works with Metacity and even Compiz, I guess.
Wish the razorqt team all the best, it develops nicely!
