Given the choice of enjoying the summer in beautiful southern California or working on the Mandrake Linux distribution, the twisted MandrakeSoft developers chose to stick around and present "Mandrake Linux 9.0 RC 1."

As with any Beta, this one is probably loaded with nasty bugs which may cause serious problems on production systems. Betas are only suitable for installation on test systems -- you've been warned!

Check out the rest here.

Thanks. I'll download and see if I can install this in VMWare. :D

Cool. Thanks for the heads up.

Downloaded RC-1 and installed it. According to the install screen it is beta 4.

I continue to consider Manndrake 9 as a very promising version.
