This will let + everybody keep their /usr/abs tree up to date, and it will also let you easily + mirror the ftp site. I'm in need of download mirrors, so please, if anybody would + like to volunteer, email me and I'll put you on the mirror page.<br><br> + If you don't already have it, create the directory /usr/abs. Then to + update your /usr/abs tree, you can do the following:<br> + <blockquote><pre># cd /usr/abs && rsync -av archlinux.org::abs .</pre></blockquote> + </li></ul> +<b>Mar 11 - Arch Linux 0.1 (Homer) released</b> +<ul class="plain"><li>I've finally got a bootable iso image on the ftp site. + The bad news is that you don't get a pretty interactive installer.

With ABS, you can easily create new packages, + and it's trivial to rebuild existing packages with your own customizations.<br><br> + And on that note, if you start to use the ABS and build your own packages, I welcome + your submissions.

It is lightweight and + contains the latest stable versions of software. Packages are in .tar.gz format and are tracked + by a package manager that is designed to allow easy package upgrades. Arch is quite streamlined + compared to some other distributions. Things that are relatively unused (by me, anyway) are not + kept (info-pages, for example). A default Arch install leaves you with a solid base; from there, + you can add packages to create the custom installation you're looking for. Arch has a package + build system that allows you to easily create your own packages, which makes it very easy to + rebuild a package with your own custom configuration. Arch also aims to use the newer features + available to linux users, such as reiserfs/ext3 and devfs. +</span></p> +<br> + +<p><span class="subheader">Components</span><br><br> +<span class="text">All components are optional, of course.
