I have tried the newest release and this are some comments so far before
further testing.
The renaming part is superficial, at least right now. However, I had some
other problems. DHCP during Network Config didn't work. Don't know why, the
only message I got was that it failed. Don't remember exactly the phrase
but I'll do it all over again and carefully take notes of all messages.
Next thing I noticed was when I rebooted. I got a number of error messages
about modules not found, they went by so quickly I could hardly see them so
I didn't get any notes, haven't rebooted again to check any closer but that
will come too.
Then I had some problem logging in as a user, not as root. I got thrown out
immediately. I didn't check this message either, I was kind of in a hurry
but I'll do that right after this mail has gone away.
Besides that, and the keymap-error, things went quite smoothly.
The Icons looks ok. An OS3.5 version would be great, I'll see what I can do,
if you're interested.
Regards
