The pre-release is intented for testing and preview purposes only. Not everything is working right now, but I'll give you the opportunity to take a look at the system and give me your thoughts, suggestions and also bug requests. You can download the prerelease in the "Download" section on the top. Right now you can create a working Samba fileshare. That's all!. The pre-release is based on:
- Linux Kernel 2.6.33
- Buildroot 2010.02
- Monit service watchdog 5.0.3
- Busybox 1.15.3
- BRTFS-Tools "unstable-git"
- Samba 3.4.6
- Codeigniter 1.7.1 (PHP Framework for the frontend)
and vodoo stuff done by myself *joking*
Please write your problems/bugs/suggestions/thoughts to the appropriate section of the forum.
Update: The PulsarOS administration is completely web-based. You don't need a user login on the system. But if you like to take a look under the magic hat, please see this "post".
Update2: The installation documentation can be found under the link "documentation" ;-)

Sure, many of you are actually excited about the new Apple Ipad, but I've also some quite exciting news (at least for me ;-)) about the PulsarOS frontend. I must admit that I'm not a designer nor a developer. I'm doing this because I like to learn new things and to create something unique and new. That means it takes some time to get the basic frontend out in the wild, but I'll give my best to get this starting. What actually works are the following things:
- Pool creation
- Pool List
- Volume creation
- Volume delete
- Volume list
- Overview Information
Things that need to done for 0.5alpha:
- Pool delete (with dependencies on the existing volumes) - DONE
- Disk status (S.M.A.R.T)
- Share configuration (ISCSI, SAMBA)
- Login
With this items you will get a basic configuration gui to create fileshares. This should be the first milestone for the 0.5alpha. I hope I'll get this out soon, so you can play around with the system and report bugs and feature requests.
Screenshots will follow after the css design cleanup.
Update: Images are available:
Volumes:
Pools:

I'm sitting in front of my computer, thinking about the plugin system of PulsarOS. Personally, I like the way how Apple integrated the Appstore into the IPhone (of course without the extremely bad limitations). What do you think about such an integration into PulsarOS?
Main Features:
- Writing Plugins with connection to a future PulsarOS API (GUI, installation, deinstallation, upgrade....)
- Approval process to ensure high quality standards
- Only one repository for all plugins and upgrades - every plugin can be installed within the PulsarOS Gui
- Plugin configuration accessible through the GUI
Please write your feedback as a comment to this entry.

Today I started to design the new layout of the PulsarOS installer. Do you like it?
