1.0 Beta 1 Release

For both generic PC and embedded platforms the 1.0 beta 1 is now available. Improvements are based around reaching the milestone plan of supporting HDD, compact flash, CD-ROM, and PXE/NFS installations on generic PC, embedded PC: specifically PC Engines WRAP, and VMware virtual machines. All interface text is now translatable using the gettext system with the web interface in UTF-8 but the console adhering to video card character set limitations. This release has been tested with Ubuntu, Kubuntu, and Xubuntu terminal servers.

Please report bugs and enhancement requests to Bugzilla. Feedback and discussion can be sent to the miru-ocean-user mailing list, translations and patches should be directed to the miru-ocean-dev mailing list instead.


Future work will be reserved for bug fixes and minor adjustments until version 1.0 gold release. Post release changes will occur to the backend script collection, configuration handling, and a templating system to help setup a new original theme for the web interface.
