GeckoLinux Rolling 999.170124 and GeckoLinux Static 422.170124 editions are now available for download, shipping with the recently released Calamares 3.0 graphical installer, which adds countless fixes and improvements over the 2.4 series used in previous versions of GeckoLinux. The old yast2-live-installer makes a comeback in the updated GeckoLinux Rolling and Static spins, which are based on snapshot 20170123 of openSUSE Tumbleweed, as well as openSUSE Leap 42.2. An important bug that prevented the Linux OS to boot correctly on certain machines has been fixed as well, along with other identified issues.
