Parted Magic 4.11: Download Available

Patrick Verner announced on June 14th the immediate availability of a new version of his popular Parted Magic operating system. Parted Magic 4.11 comes now with Linux kernel 2.6.32.15, Partclone 2.3, and many other updated packages, as well as some bug fixes and improvements. Parted Magic is an operating system created to help users easily partition their hard drives or perform various recovery tasks.

"Some major effort went into this release and I hope you enjoy it. Next release will most likely include a newer Xorg and Linux Kernel. I would also like to thank burdi01 for his efforts improving the init scripts and his future work on the keyboard selection program. [...] I would like to upgrade the kernel to 2.6.34, but I can't seem to find any Squashfs LZMA patches for it. If anybody knows where I can find some that work, please e-mail me." - Patrick Verner said in the official release announcement.
