Re: Lubuntu 12.04 Alpha 1 Testing

 

Hi Julien, Phill and Everyone :)

Last time I did a test for Lubuntu 11.10 Beta 2, Phill advised to download
the daily build iso and install it rather than using "zsync". Does it stand
true on Alpha 1 as well? do I have to download the daily build? If yes, how
often do I have to do that? obviously, it doesn't make sense to do that
daily. My internet isn't that fast and during downloading, I can't do much
except waiting - any other website will be slow.

Thank you :)
