Post by: Munchor on May 26, 2011, 02:10:53 pm
Today, Linux Mint has announced the release of the version 11 of Mint, code name being "Katya", following "Julia", Linux Mint 10.

I tried installing it with no luck, so I'll way until uNetBootin's next update including this version of Mint.

Have you tried it, will you try it?

I'm staying in 9 on this hardware unless 11 is worth the weight.

I'm running 10 and I'm updating the next time I boot up into it (which is probably sometime today).

I didn't realize how much it had to update. Its close to 40 min now and I have 1mb/s download speed

EDIT I changed the 11 to 40 I wonder what was on my mind...

I'm running the beta version now. Unless there have been any major changes in the past 2 weeks then I'll skip this until I have more time to copy all of my files over.

My comp froze while updatign and when I restarted and went into mint it wouldn't load. I think it broke when it ran out of disk space. I should have cleaned out before upgrading. I had thought 2gb was enough

After nine years in development, hopefully it will have been worth the weight.

It's worth it in my opinion, and you can always uninstall what you don't need after you get it all set up.

I was just vaguely quoting Gabe Newell.
