Our lastest desktop environment release. This release will work on many older desktop computers however works best with newer computers with at least a 1 gig of ram but best with 2. We currently have 2 64 bit versions and 1 32 bit version. release 1.5 is designed for the developers and distro builder to build on and comes with remastersys and is under 900 MB. Version 1.6 is a full blown 64 bit OS which is easily customizable through its theming engine that is built into the cinnamon desktop. We even inclued a Windows XP and Windows 7 themes pre installed on both releases. Both of these releases were built from the new 14.04 released Ubuntu mini cd(37megs).
Our lastest release is the same as the 1.6 release except built for the i386 architecture. This mintymac release should boot and install on most computers out there that still turn on lol.... On real old PC's it may take a little time to install but will and it will work smooth once installed.
PLEASE NOTE WHEN INSTALLING ANY OF OUR DISTROS
USE "custom" AS THE USERNAME HIT ENTER
LEAVE PASSWORD FIELD BLANK HIT ENTER THEN YOUR IN LIVE MODE
ONCE YOU VIEW DESKTOP THERE IS AN INSTALL ICON :-) ENJOY
The world is a changin' and sorry to say doesn't look
to good. Due to too much time on my hands with the lack
of sales :-( for over a year I personally have learned
alot of very valuable info having to do with current
world affairs. I highly recommend you give our website Prophetic-News.com
a look. Thank you.
