Linux � la fran�aise: First Alpha from Mandriva Linux 2010

[ Thanks to Britta Wuelfing for this link. ]

"One new aspect with Mandriva is that the build tool mkcd has been replaced with bcd. In addition, developers promise strongly shortened boot up times for the new display. A Moblin packet which can support feeble hardware and more is available as an option."

"Plymouth optically enhances the boot process with the help of graphic animation. Splashy comes into use for unsupported chip sets. Mandriva's security framework is based on Tomoyo, which will have the capability of being set up via GUI in the future."
