+<p><B>2006-06-02 </B>Mondo 2.0.8-2 / Mindi 1.0.8-2 available</p>
+<p>
+It turned out that mindi 1.0.8-1 had bugs at least on RHEL 4 and also I wanted a new function for PXE deployment (change of NIC), so here are mondo 2.0.8-2 / mindi 1.0.8-2.
+</p>
+<p>
+Available for the 11 distributions supported as the usual place <a href="ftp://ftp.mondorescue.org/">ftp://ftp.mondorescue.org/</a>
+</p>
+<p>
+<b>CAUTION:</b> The ipconf parameter used for PXE deployment has changed and its syntaxt is NOT compatible with the previous one. You now need to precise first the NIC on which you will deploy. Look at mindi's README.pxe for details.

+
+<p>As usual src.rpm packages are also available in the same directory. Also a new mondo-doc package is produced for most distributions containing all the formats of mondo's documentation. Only there for completion, as mondo's package already contains the required doc files.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+This version should fix most of latest bugs reported for mindi. the 2.0.x branch should now enter in a bug fix only mode. All new features will be introduced in 2.2.x on which we will now work (internationalization, memory management, configuration files, ...)

-Other distributions will follow asap (should be able to produce soon
-redhat 7.3, fedora core 4, and only after rhel3/4 and sles9) due to the
-change in the virtual machines I have to do (now using qemu + more tools
-to generate RPMs)
-</p>
-

-The focus on this version has been more around the new website and
-documentation, and a bit less on code. So some persistant bugs are still
-not corrected (some dvd burning issues and dm/lvm2 support mainly) and
-will be hopefully in 2.0.8.
