    Fedora 18 Alpha comes with an installer renewed

    class=”article first_main_article” readability=”48″>

    Fedora Project leaders have announced the availability of Fedora 18 Alpha , the first release of a highly anticipated and distribution comes with several new features in several areas.

    Fedora 18 Fedora 18 Alpha 500x375 alpha comes with an installer renewed

    One of the most interesting is the new look of Anaconda , the installation wizard appearance has changed dramatically to try to simplify and clarify the process of installation. In Anaconda have removed the vast majority of questions put to him, and the user simply presents a series of defaults that the user can change if desired.

    Apart from this in Fedora 18 Alpha we find with KDE SC 4.9, Xfce 4.10, 3.6 and Cinnamon GNOME 1.6 , as well as all components of MATE, the fork of the 2.x branch GNOME.

    As indicated in The H Open, the new versions of these desktop environments arrive with other new features. For example, the possibility of establishing an access point with NetworkManager, an updated edition OpenStack in ‘Folsom’ support for such controversial UEFI Secure Boot feature that Microsoft wants to implement with manufacturers before the arrival Windows 8.

    Due to the premature

    development cycle there are several features that will be included in future versions of Fedora previous 18. In fact, you have to be careful because there are options not covered, and eg automatic partitioning reformats the selected disk partitions without notice , so be very careful with this option enabled.

    delay of three weeks Fedora 18 Alpha wins affect the entire roadmap of the distribution, but if no new obstacles the final release of Fedora 18 should reach late November . Meanwhile, you can get more details on Fedora 18 Alpha in the official announcement, and you can also download it from the official download page of the project.
