Andrew is an exceptional talent at pub quizzes and dreams up many of the ideas that go into the magazine. He also writes things occasionally. He's @AndrewGregory83 on Twitter.
Can I use the ISO image to install Tiny Core on a SolidRun Cubox-i computer?
Thanks
We release the magazine free nine months after it’s publication. That means the distros on this issue’s coverdisk are at lease nine months old. As a general rule, I’d recommend downloading the latest versions rather than using the versions on and cover disks that are this old.
In this case, there’s a second problem as well. Our cover disks are designed for x86 computers, while the Cubox is ARM. That means you’ll have to use a distro specifically designed for the Cubox, not a general purpose one.
Nice. Now if they would release it in an OPEN FORMAT (as opposed to the worthless PDF format), it may be worth reading.
Er: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_Document_Format
“PDF … was officially released as an open standard on July 1, 2008, and published by the International Organization for Standardization as ISO 32000-1:2008”
I’m glad you’ve provided machine-readable and editable “source” text for at least some of articles this time. Ideally this could be done for all articles next time? (And pictures? Why do I have to go extract them out of the PDF?)
Yeah, and the pictures – I’m sure they were much larger and of better quality before being reduced in size and having lossy compression applied to go into the PDF.
Thanks guys, keep up the good work!
I am just reading the Key exchange article and when explaining the Diffie-Hellman algorithm you are saying that GCHQ knows a, (s+a) and (s+b). How do they know ‘a’? Should not it be ‘s’ instead?
Hey guys, I just found this incredible resource. But I noticed that for the issue 2 there is only one ePub version. Is there high res/low res version of this issue like all the other published so far? Thanks a lot.
