Congratulations to Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid

The time is now!

Yesterday was a great day.
I’ve got my new mainboard Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS4 and tried to install Ubuntu/Hardy.
Unfortunately, the boot CD hang with during startup (at the USB check time) and the only thing i got, was the busybox.
After updating the BIOS to the latest F9 version, it was time to look at the new Ubuntu Release.

Success! They released yesterday the latest Ubuntu Release 8.10 (Intrepid).

Installation on the ICH10 chipset board EP45-DS45 works like a charm without any issue !!!

Good work Ubuntu Team!

As ever, i use the Xubuntu AMD64 Alternate Image, because XFCE works much faster, than Gnome or KDE.
As every download from all mirrors were slow, i used the torrent download to get maximum download speed!
