I just want to give a short update on the broken LXDE Spin images: I (think I) fixed the bug, but we need to do some more testing to be really sure. The packages first need to go through bodhi before new images will be composed. Not sure how long it takes, I prefer adding one or two extra days for testing because I really don’t want to disappoint all the people who are interested in LXDE.
Thanks for your patience. I’ll keep you informed.
Thanks for the update! If you need someone to test now and in the future, I’m available.
I will be waiting 🙂
hope to not see the:
“No root device found”
“Boot has failed, sleeping forever”
message again 🙁 I want to try Fedora LXDE! 😀
Hi Alex, thanks for your interest in the LXDE spin. I already answered to your other comment, please have a look.
I see, too bad that unetbootin isn’t working… any alternative for an ubuntu user???
thanks for the replies 🙂
Try liveusb-creator or livecd-iso-to-disk.sh from our livecd-tools. The latter will be easier as you only need to download and run the script:
livecd-iso-to-disk.sh /path/to/Fedora-12-i686-Live-LXDE.iso /dev/to/copye.g. /dev/sdb
Hello:
It looks like the relevant fix (menu-cache-0.2.6-1.fc12) has been pushed to stable: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F12/FEDORA-2009-11947?_csrf_token=ab4dd6073257adaa9236712d886e097a1a089198
Trying to remain patient, but… any idea when we might see updated ISOs ? 🙂
Thanks,

The problem is that FESCO first needs to decide how to proceed with the images. This was supposed to happen yesterday but the meeting was canceled because of the holidays. Please follow the progress of the trac ticket.
Sorry I cannot give you a better answer ATM. 🙁
OK many thanks again; will follow that trac ticket link.
Thanks and Regards,
VJS

Thanks for your patience. See my official announcement here.
Umm… hate to be a pain, but: 464.1 MB does not look right. Is this correct ?
Thanks,
V
Yes, this is correct. I tried to keep it small.
It’s easier if users install the additional stuff they need than uninstalling all the crap they don’t want. 😉
Thanks Christoph
