Tiny Core 3.2 has been released, one month after the previous release. The minimalistic Linux distro comes with an updated BusyBox and a number of changes and improvements to the highly-customized environment. Most of the changes are under the hood.
Highlights of Tiny Core 3.2:
· BusyBox 1.17.2;
· Better localization support in Appsaudit, Wallpaper, and Swapfile;
· Updated AppBrowser and System Stats, all tabs now allow mouse "select for copy";
· Eliminated trailing null item in FLTK browser widget in Appsaudit and Appbrowser;
· tce-load now handles case of missing dependency file;
· filetool.sh got a "-d" switch for a dry run, compare restore boot code and improved encrypted backup;
· Filetool GUI gets support for None/Backup/Safe options;
· Moved 'protect' and 'secure' after extension loading to support alternate layout keyboards in tc-config;
· No reboot required anymore to move from OnBoot to OnDemand;
· Ondemand script added selection and removal of freedesktop items, improved pathing and support to handle freedesktop while also using wbar;
· Inittab-save updated with askfirst for tty3-6 for memory savings when using multivt boot code;
· Fixed inconsistency with X-FullPathIcon in .desktop-tinycore items;
· Removed stats.txt from /opt/.xfiletool.lst;
· Added ondemand directory to PATH;
The changes require users to update their .profile to benefit from the added ondemand PATH. Users also need to recreate any ondemand they made for a freedesktop desktop environment in a previous release.
About Tiny Core
Tiny Core takes lightweight Linux distributions to the extreme, weighing in at just 10 MB, but still providing a full graphical environment. It is designed to be a highly mobile distro coming with just the bare-bones minimum, Linux 2.6 kernel, Busybox, Tiny X, and Fltk.
