Hi i just placed the new "Core Dump" TEST ISO to the mirrors eg: ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/other/rc-iso/2008.03/
some days testing should be enough, I tested them in kvm-qemu and didn't find an issue.
ATTENTION: This ISO contains packages that are in testing repository. So don't be suprised by getting package is newer then repository on first pacman -Syu. Those errors will be gone when we moved in the packages, which will happen soon.
Changelog:
GENERAL: - kernel 2.6.24.3 usage - pacman 3.1.3 usage - RAM usage has been revisited, these are the new recommendations: * FTP ISO, CORE ISO: arch boot image 160 MB RAM x86_64/i686 (all packages selected, with swap partition) * CORE ISO: lowmem boot image 64 MB RAM x86_64/i686 (all packages selected, with swap partition)
FIXES: - fixed intel wireless automatic module loading (arch boot image) - fixed auto prepare of harddisk (lowmem boot image) - added more checks and improvements to autoprepare of harddisk - added missing netfilter modules and some wireless addon modules - added dmraid and linux-atm to install environment - added gpt support to grub - added tiacx module and firmware files to install environment - added parted to install environment - updated ftp mirrors to latest status

As usual check md5sum before using the images and also be aware of the new RAM recommendations the images have.
