Good day Jerome,
> As for RC4, it is coming very very soon. > > Excluding anything absolutely critical, Well, having four times slower install than possible, when installing on real hardware, does sound like something which *is* worth fixing ASAP and in rc4, unless you plan to release rc5 only a week later ;-) Several of my other suggestions are about EASY to fix and old bugs in your config and autoexec templates, which will help making rc4 lower in bug count at low effort for you, preventing future "I have tried the distro, but it is full of problems" reviews. Given that "RC" implies "better than beta" :-) > no changes will be made to RC4 at this point. Can you provide a sort of changelog to announce which past changes rc4 already has compared to rc3, as well as some prediction for rc5 timing? Luckily http://mercurycoding.com/downloads.html has been as-is for three months, pre-packaged, so UHDD, UDVD2, RDISK, XMGR etc. have been fully available for the distro repositories, also DEBUG, JWASM, HIMEMX and 64-bit HIMEMSX. I agree that using http://kernel.fdos.org/ to first create a new package for a fresh kernel would be TOO LATE now. That can wait for rc6, while of course rc5 would be much nicer. Maybe Jeremy can make a FreeDOS style package for you?
