GParted News Item 229

A new stable release of GParted Live is available.

This release includes GParted 1.0.0 and updated packages.

Items of note include:

• Based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2019/Sep/03)
• Linux kernel updated to 5.2.9-2
• Package grub updated to 2.04-3
• Package live-tools was updated to 20190627. The issue about poweroff/reboot should be fixed: failed to execute shutdown binary freezing execution
• Includes GParted 1.0.0

This release of GParted Live has been successfully tested on VirtualBox, VMware, BIOS, UEFI, and physical computers with AMD/ATI, NVidia, and Intel graphics.

Note that the default boot options did not display an X Desktop on old Acer Aspire laptops. The workaround is to select Other modes of GParted Live and choose GParted Live (Safe graphics setting, vga-normal).
