Red Hat Limbo 2 beta released.  Some of the extremely broken things from
Limbo 1 are now fixed (like OpenOffice).  Limbo has radical changes and
improvements over the 7.x series of Red Hat, so much testing is still needed
on various hardware configurations.  Just like Mandrake 9.0 beta, if the
final version wont install on your hardware, it is your fault for not
testing the beta!

Official announcement below:
-----------------------
The Limbo beta of Red Hat Linux has been updated. New in this release
include:

- improved package customization in the installer
- redhat-config-packages - The Red Hat graphical package management
  tools
- gcc-3.2 prerelease - the soon-to-be released gcc-3.2 allows for
  better ABI compatibility going forward. Note that C++ apps compiled
  on the first beta will not run on this beta.

And, as always just a *few* bugfixes. Please report issues via
Bugzilla at http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/ - choose
'Red Hat Public Beta' as the product, and 'limbo' as the version.

To discuss limbo, send mail to Limbo-list-request at redhat.com with
'subscribe' in the subject line. You can leave the body empty.
