GParted News Item 259

The GParted team is pleased to announce a new stable release of GParted Live.

This release includes GParted 1.7.0, updated packages, and other improvements.

Items of note include:

• Only amd64 (x86-64 bit) images are available going forward:
  As mentioned in the Debian release mailing list:
  Dropping i386 kernel packages
  The i386 Linux kernel packages were dropped in our upstream, Debian, Sid repo. Hence i686/i686-pae GParted live will be no more in the future. From this release, only amd64 (x86-64) release will be available.
• Includes GParted 1.7.0
• Based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2025/Dec/05)
• Linux image updated to 6.17.10-1
• Memtest86+ updated to v8.00
• There is an issue with help on Virtual Machines. Specifically the menu option Help -> Contents opens and displays a black window on Virtual Machines. Workaround is to view help on documentation page.
