manuleka 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2011 Mint 11 is up and running... so ELEGANT and so simple... installation took roughly about 12~15mins on my MSI 1.6Ghz netbookMint crew have made alot of effort enhancing alot of stuff on this release... the installation process was a breeze, started with partition/drive picking for Mint to be installed in, then while i was in stuff (username, location etc...) the installation was running on the background The desktop looks quite the same as Mint 10, Software package manager has some revamping on it's layouts and icons which is quite elegantIt also comes with most media codecs I downloaded the LiveDVD iso which is 886MB... which comes with VLC, Banshee, LibreOffice etc...I would really recommend you guys to pop this into a virtual machine and try it out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yordan 10 Report post Posted May 28, 2011 started with partition/drive picking for Mint to be installed in, then while i was in stuff (username, location etc...) the installation was running on the background This is a very nice feature. How may times I had to first input all needed info and then had to wait until all the rpm's were coped to disk ! All the mandatory actions can be performed in the background, while you are typing the user-side infos and local data as system name and DNS or IP settings. I really love this.

manuleka 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2011 yea i was use to filling in stuff before the installation continues, with Mint 11 it all goes on the background which is really neat and slick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
