@roadie, thanks for reporting the Midnight Commander issue. It's fixed now and it will be available in the next release.
I can't replicate the mloop issue though. Can you provide a step by step please?
The mloop issue was caused by me forgetting I was using my version of mloop from Porteus as the Porteux version doesn't handle zstd. It looks for httpfs2 as well as archivemount.
The noload cheatcode continues to be present, noload=xfce stops the boot, noload=003-xfce works fine. I'll try building a VM though that may be a while.
Update:
I've fixed the noload=xfce problem for my machine by editing linuxrc, lines 208 and 227........changed egrep -ve to egrep -vw. For whatever reason, linuxrc doesn't like to parse "xfce". Also, I posted previously that Porteus 5.0 booted with that cheatcode, I was wrong on that, it hangs also. I'm off to rebuild an initrd for it too.

This is going to be a big release with some critical changes, so I'm asking you guys help testing this release candidate (only current + Xfce 4.16 or Cinnamon 5.8.0 for now). This is the changelog:
Using my main Linux test machine: I added Cinnamon DE & NVIDIA driver, and everything seems to work except for inxi:

– can never remember how to do images here – maybe this:

Maybe something wrong w/ perl—tho inxi works fine in 0.4 (??)
LibreOffice, Disks, and NVIDIA driver all work fine...
