Description:
 SEEKING DEVELOPERS! Contact for more information.

The PhoeNUX OS Installer.

This depends on Perl-Qt 3.009-b2, RPM 4.2.3, and
KDE 3.4.x. It's supposed to be used with a live CD
environment that contains the RPM packages to
install the OS.

I am open to the idea of having it be usable with
apt-rpm, Debian apt, dpkg or Slackware's package
tools. Also I'll be willing to entertain making it
distribution agnostic so it can be used with ANY
flavor, as long as folks are willing to help add
in the needed support.

If you want to use this for installing your OS,
please be kind and a) drop me a note, b) honor the
license (GPL) and send all changes upstream so we
all can benefit, c) patch out the logo from
PhoeNUX and references to our distribution as it
is our trademark. Thanks :)

KNOWN BUGS:
RPM dead locks around a third of the way through
the installation.

Patches are welcome.

Changelog:
 0.7.5
- supports XFS, JFS, Ext2/3, ReiserFS3
- supports RPM
- limited translations at present.
