LFA 64-bit Linux Live DVD Build 161114 out now

Nov 14, 2016 23:40 GMT  ·  By

Arne Exton, the developer of many GNU/Linux distributions and Android-x86 flavors, announced today, November 16, 2016, the release of a new version of his Linux For All (LFA) Live DVD.

Based on the latest Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) operating system, LFA Live DVD Build 161114 is a total rebuild, powered by the newest Linux 4.8 kernel and including various elements from the Debian Testing (Stretch) repositories, including the Refracta Tools, which let users create their own Ubuntu-based Live systems.

"I have included Refracta Tools so you can create your own Linux For All/Ubuntu live installable system," said Arne Exton in the today's announcement. "One of my previous versions of LFA (build 141120) had four desktop environments installed. LFA build 161114 uses only Fluxbox as window manager and Cairo-Dock as desktop interface."

Includes all the latest software versions, Nvidia 370.28 proprietary video driver

Also new in the LFA Live DVD Build 161114 release, there's the Nvidia 370.28 proprietary video driver for owners of Nvidia GPUs, and the latest software versions from the upstream Ubuntu and Debian Stretch repos as of November 14, 2016. Best of all, you can download LFA's Linux 4.8 kernel if you want to use it in another Ubuntu- or Debian-based distro.

That being said, LFA Live DVD Build 161114 is now available for download from our website as a bootable, live 64-bit ISO image that you can write on a USB flash drive or DVD disc, and it looks like you don't even have to install the OS on your PC to use the Refracta Tool for creating your own Ubuntu 16.10 live system. Check out the screenshots below for more details and the official release notes for in-depth installation instructions.
