Ultimate Edition 1.8 x64 has been released!!!

[TheeMahn]

After a ton of work done all by hand, we have a release it is uploading now, admin / mods & mirrors once uploaded will have 24 hours to get their paws on it. It will then be released to forum members... After 32 bit is built the world. Please read below. Sorry I slept in today, they had more then 24 hours Anyways have at it ladies n gents. If you want to see progress on the 32 bit edition, you can read how I made Ultimate Edition 1.8. If it were not for a few "stubborn packages" It would have already been released.

5/20/08: It is now officially released to the world Due to "the load" placed on the download server, knocking it offline multiple times, I have purchased http://downloadultimate.info/ & hosting. This will help "split the load" & serve the community better. I wrote an awesome php script that will transfer files between the servers in seconds ~ 1.4 GB a minute. So Ultimate Edition 1.8 both x86 & 64 have an "official mirror". Not to mention other releases. Enjoy it was not free.

I want everyone to understand this is no small jump between Ultimate Edition 1.7 to Ultimate Edition 1.8 this is built based off hardy not gutsy (6 months of advancements).

Wow, that didn't take long set it global and 2 minutes later have a post I will be removing Ultimate Edition 1.7 x64 from global once this goes final... Just try to keep people informed. After I start my job Monday, I probably won't have time to handle things as I have, sorry.

Thanks for hanging in there,

I will be honest, I do not hurt in that dept, people bend over backwards to drink beer with me on their tab, just to learn. I do not know how much they learn as they get inebriated cheers

As far as a name both names have to start with the letter "H" harty is a play on hardy same as gusty v/s gutsy Gnome v/s Gibbon I know I came out on top there Gnome is the environment, Gnarly v/s Gutsy as far as I see it I had them there as well. gusty v/s gutsy is the folder on the repo not the distro name. Gnarly I loved because it begins with a G but sounds like it begins with a N, same with Gnome. I could never do that again...

Hotrod is being considered as the last name. Unless better is found it will be it.

After I start my job Monday. TheeMahn

Don't worry, you know the crew is here to help out.

[jfg69]

Well, this will be the one I clean my drives for, my NEXT OS. 1.8 and x64, yeah baby! Ready and waiting!

Ultimate Edition:(something with an H)Hotrod.. hmm, as an old skool hot rod guy, I like that! I think I'll go work on a wallpaper..

No Thanks. I'll take one of these ANY freak'n day over something that doesn't handle, brake, accelerate worth a crap.
Why pay that much money for something that doesn't perform? Your a glutton for punishment I suppose
