ISO image of the OS that is based on the Linux kernel 2.4.4 system and includes the XFS file system which can be burned directly onto bootable CD. Anybody wanting to use it must have the prototype hardware. Right now it doesn't do too much except boot to a shell prompt, but you can mount/unmount drives including XFS drives. Next thing is to get the mkfs.xfs to work under kernel 2.4.4 version so the system can be installed to a hard drive.
well, that pretty much says it all. there are some basic guidlines as to what you need, and what you should use if you want to develop for the tuxbox. Currently, they are on the General forum on http://www.tuxboxproject.com and i will add them to the project documentation here as well.
I am building the 2nd prototype and want to be able to show the world that it works :-) Just so i can plug everything in and boot up a game and take some pictures and such. hopefully we can do it!
