Digg!

The sixth pre-release of Mandriva Linux 2008 Spring is here. This pre-release includes support for easy synchronization of Windows Mobile 5+, Blackberry and Nokia devices, the Codeina multimedia codec installation system, support for Radeon HD 3xxx series graphics cards, more improvements to the Mandriva software installation tools, the finalized 2008 Spring theme, a new metapackage for easily installing a complete LAMP setup, and available KDE 4.0.2. See here for download information. The pre-release is available in Free and One editions, with i586 and x86-64 DVDs for the Free edition and i586, KDE-based and GNOME-based CDs for the One edition. Please report any problems you encounter to Bugzilla. You can also discuss the release candidate in the official forums. It may take a few hours for the files to be copied to all mirrors, so if you do not find them on the first mirror you try, try another.

I see no live disk identified in any repository listed. I see no iso identifed as KDE, and none listed as a Gnome. If the File:mandriva-linux-2008-spring-free-mini-rc2-aceras-dual.iso is either live disk or perhaps a "dual" disk of KDE and Gnome. Did I miss this information? All sites have free and free-mini.

I would love to try another Live disc, what do I download?

Thats the quote from above, but it isnt true, there are no LIVE available anywhere. I searched the forums and inside on one thread is this: Anne Mandriva

So we can wait till the LIVE discs are released some time later. I hope they announce it again, when the LIVE discs are ready.
