More On The Latest Installer Version – 1.1.1 Firmware Recommended

I’ve just noticed that there is a lot more information on the latest Installer version, on its Featured screen. Here’s some of the most notable stuff:

"This release uses a different core repository and firmware 1.1.1 is recommended."

Known Issues:

  • Section list titles for ‘Recent Packages’ are poorly implemented
  • Free space check / display is missing
  • Refreshes may hang
  • More Info pages do not scale
  • No Safari plugin available yet
  • Local installs not yet supported
