I will be sharing a stall with the guys from CAcert this FOSDEM (6th-7th February in Brussels, Belgium) where I will be representing both StormOS & Nexenta.
There will be a netbook running the latest build of StormOS, tons of CD's (NCP3a4, NCP PNFS, NexentaStor, StormOS and the next StormOS preview; the Jaunty based one!) and t-shirts too!

I said in a previous post that the new repo had changed quite a bit and that I wanted to wait until Hail Beta 3 was released to update it, but since Hail Beta 3 is very close I think it now makes sense to do the update.

I had a bit of spare time over the weekend so I decided to take a look at getting gparted working on StormOS:
It looks like I'm running Xubuntu 9.04 because I've backported the xubuntu meta-packages so I can use them as a base for the new stormos-xfce-desktop meta-package for Hail Beta 3 (which is going to be awesome).
