Parted Magic 2022_11_20 CHANGELOG:
This version addresses the “Out of Memory” boot problem. For whatever reason a small number of newer computers cannot boot kernel/initramfs images totaling more than 140MB. This is something a computer from the early 2000’s could handle. I have no idea how this helps their customers or what problem it solves. We also had to remove the fancy background in the GRUB menu for the same reason. Anything other than a simple text based menu will also trigger the “Out of Memory” problem in these machines.

READ: These fixes were backported to the Parted Magic 2022_09_04 downloads. Just log into your account and download it.

We also fixed a bug in Parted Magic Mount. It would have to be manually restarted after a flash drive was inserted into the machine.

Added programs: libafflib0v5-3.7.19, xmount-0.7.6, open-iscsi-2.1.5, open-isns-0.101, pyudev-0.22.0, and targetcli-fb-2.1.53.

Parted Magic 2022_09_04 CHANGELOG:
There have been a few complaints about our Secure Boot bypass not working on some newer Win11 machines. We have updated GRUB and and the Kernel to address this. Parted Magic now bypasses Secure Boot on every machine tested. Refind was added to the GRUB2 menu in the Extras section. You’ll have to have Secure Boot disabled to use this.

Added Programs: f3-8.0 and mbpfan-2.3.0.

Parted Magic 2022_06_19 CHANGELOG:
This version of Parted Magic updates to Linux 5.18.2 and adds fwupd, gcab, libgusb, and libxmlb.

As always, the ZFS and NVIDIA drivers are updated to the latest releases.

Parted Magic 2022_03_28 CHANGELOG:
This version of Parted Magic updates to Linux 5.17.1 and is based on Slackware 15.0. The package management app has been moved to the desktop. Any packages downloaded with the package manager will be added to your Save Session (if you use it) and will install on the next boot automatically. Now that we have a stable version of Slackware, I can start removing the big apps for the next release. If people want stuff like Libreoffice and VLC, it should be really simple to add them with the package manager. For now the ISO is still 2GB.

Parted Magic 2022_01_18 CHANGELOG:
This version of Parted Magic updates to Linux 5.16.1 and fixes a few minor problems with the Secure Erase and NVME Secure Erase programs.

Manufacturers are starting to get a bit carried away with the length of names given to drives. The names are now limited to 15 characters, so the Secure Erase GUI should now fit well on everybody’s screen. If there is still any doubt to what drive is what, do a mouse over and the entire name will be shown in the tool tip.

We are using the bleeding edge NVIDIA 510.39.01 driver because it’s the only driver that will compile with the 5.16.1 kernel.
