Rescuezilla 2.6.1

The Rescuezilla project has pubilshed updated media for its 2.6.x series. The new release fixes a bug with swap partitions remaining mounted during operations and updates the distribution's hardware support. "If you have a blank screen, try 'Graphical Fallback Mode' from the Rescuezilla boot menu (after selecting a language), if that doesn't work, try the alternative ISO image; each variant has slightly different video drivers and Linux kernel versions, so often have slightly different graphics support; adds release based on Ubuntu 25.04 'Plucky' for best support of new hardware; fixed regression where swap partitions stayed unintentionally mounted causing restore and clone operations to destination disks containing Linux swap partitions to fail; re-enabled Image Explorer (beta) after it was temporarily disabled in 2.6.0; enabled Firefox on the Ubuntu 24.10 'Oracular' release after it was temporarily excluded in 2.6.0; added ability to specify NFS version - NFSv3, NFSv4 and the (existing default) of automatically negotiating down; improved touchpad support for tap-to-click and multifinger gestures using libinput driver...."

This release release drops support for 32-bit processors due to Debian's decision to no longer pack i386 Linux kernel and it also updates the Linux kernel to version 6.12.37.

Items of note include: only amd64 (x86-64) images are available going forward - as mentioned in the Debian release mailing list, dropping i386 kernel packages, the i386 Linux kernel packages were dropped in our upstream, Debian 'Sid' repository, hence i686/i686-pae GParted Live will be no more in the future; from this release on, only amd64 (x86-64) release will be available; includes GParted 1.7.0; implemented a mechanism to reduce the possibility of random order of block devices in GParted Live; based on the Debian 'Sid' repository as of 2025-07-12; Linux kernel image updated to 6.12.37.

Rhino Linux 2025.3

Rhino Linux is an Ubuntu-based distribution which offers a rolling-release upgrade approach. The project's latest snapshot introduces a rewritten package manager (RPK2) and a new KDE-based desktop environment which uses Plasma 6 packages. "2025.3 images ship with RPK2, our rewrite of Rhino PKG in Nushell, by default. We have already written a blog post detailing the changes that came in RPK2, which we recommend checking out if you haven't already. We also recommend all users review the updated Rhino PKG Wiki or rpk help message to learn about the new commands and shorthands. We have also announced the release of our UBXI KDE Desktop package this release cycle, based on Plasma 6. You can read the full announcement here. Additionally, we want to reiterate that we plan to release official UBXI KDE disk image spins by the end of the year, shipping alongside the standard Unicorn Desktop images, to allow for more desktop options out-of-the-box. Pacstall has had a few major bumps in between Rhino Linux 2025.2 and 2025.3. As we have mentioned before, with Pacstall being integral to Rhino Linux, as well as sharing developers between the projects, we feel it's important to share information about these releases as well."
