PorteuX 0.5 has been released
1. added partition table detection in the installer for Linux; if it's not 'msdos' it will stop and inform the user it's not supported
2. installer for Linux is now using zstd for faster extraction
3. dropped kernel LTO patch; only LTO flag is being used now
4. all base modules have been stripped even further -- a new release that is actually smaller; what a miracle!
5. cleanup and update of initrd binaries
6. added support to fat and ntfs filesystem check on boot
7. filesystem check on boot by default shows the log only when the boot is finished
8. added cheatcode `fscknolog` to skip `fsck` log file being presented after boot
9. added `check-filesystem` script to check partitions integrity
10. fixed an issue where reboot/shutdown process was causing errors in ext partitions
11. fixed an issue where the installer was not fixing ext permissions -- root login is no longer required when using `changes` cheatcode
12. fixed KDE settings -> users not working in stable
13. added `pkginfo` script to show information about installed packages
14. moved `delay=[sec]` cheatcode to run before `fsck` cheatcode
15. changed MATE background
16. sysvinit has been updated to 3.07 in stable as well
17. updated GNOME to 44.2 (current only)
18. KDE updated to 5.27.6 (current only)
19. busybox updated to 1.36.0
20. reverted AUFS root folder whiteouts exclusion when saving data -- it was preventing inner whiteouts to be included
21. reverted Nvidia driver to 525.85.05 because newer versions are causing random artifacts
22. reverted kernel to 6.2.16 until we find a solution for the reboot/shutdown issue (https://github.com/sfjro/aufs-standalone/issues/29)
23. minor tweaks in many scripts

Where do I find the md5sum or sha???sum?
One entry only reads "filename - size - when uploaded" e.g.:

@bour59, fat/ntfs partitions don't work with auto save session, but you can use the PorteuX Save Session application to persist your data after reboot.
@beny, have you tried Always Fresh?
@Rava, you don't need md5sum. Just download the files you want and enjoy

But I want to be sure there was no download error.
Sure, it rarely happens but it still could happen.

Porteux0.5 doesn't support the Cinnamon DE from Porteus 5.0 like Portuex0.4 does.

@Ed_P, you can use the experimental Cinnamon module for current and tweak the style the way you want: https://www.mediafire.com/file/7yh0psbl ... 230630.xzm

Thanks porteux but I've tried it and it didn't work for me. porteux0.4's approach was easier to implement.

@Ed_P, could give us more details on what exactly didn't work for you and how to replicate?
I believe there was a video published in 0.5 RC1 thread showing Cinnamon module working perfectly, so it's not clear what you want.

porteux, what's your take on size & speed (performance) for XFCE 4.16 vs 4.18 when it comes to porteux XFCE?
On Porteus 5.0 I now use 4.16 and am quite okay with it, though there are some minor bugs in thunar and mousepad.

Well I am going to try and test Porteux 0.5. I like how Mate looks. I have try to get the internet to work but no luck I will try another computer when I can. I will keep test testing Porteux 0.5.
I just like Slackware because I think it teach you about Linux to build packages where Ubuntu is like Windows you just install programs you want.

Xfce 4.18 is a bit slower than 4.16. My suggestion is 4.12, which has basically the same features as the newer ones and it's by far the fastest.
Which minor bugs do you see in thunar and mousepad?
