Release Candidates :: DSL-2.2RC1

Is there SATA support in this version?

You could just re-install MC yourself, recompile it if you wanted too, but I will miss it as well; I think one of the graphical file managers should be removed instead, I seem to work considerably faster in MC.

MC fans tell me what you would like to see removed in its place. We were also considering removing Vim and replacing it with the busybox version, but the busybox vi really lacks the features that make vim a full featured editor.

These choices are not easy, we could cut hardware support, or drop grub, or drop a redundant app. And MC competes with shell commands (ls, cd, rm, etc.) as well as emeLFM.

We only have one gui file manager, and I think the outcry would be just as high , or higher, if we removed that.

re Sata, no. You will have to wait for our 2.6 kernel version which will end up a new branch based on DSL but will not be DSL proper.

I'll stick to using vmplayer right now.

Uhm... speaking of removing something else, it would be easier if http://damnsmalllinux.org/packages.html were updated, so we knew our choices.
