MeX Build 161030 arrived a couple of days ago, based on the Debian GNU/Linux 8.6 “Jessie” and Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS (Xenial Xerus) operating systems. It’s by a special 4.8.0-25-exton kernel injected with support for additional hardware components, and uses the latest Cinnamon 3.0.7 desktop environment that comes with Linux Mint 18. However, the new feature of the MeX Build 161030 release is the integration of the Refracta tools, which let users create their own, installable, and bootable Ubuntu Live ISO images, which can be based on either the Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS (Xenial Xerus) or Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) operating systems.
