- savedevice and basedevice are now bind-mounted to their proper /mnt/sdXY mountpoints

Known Issues:

And of course, numerous bug fixes as found and reported during the alpha and beta period.
Thanks for dr.Dan for his contributions and jake29 for testing and of course also all who tested earlier 800 alphas and betas.
__________________________
Get it from ibiblio or from one of its mirrors: aarnet, uoc.gr, and nluug.nl. (Mirrors may take time to refresh).
Kernel sources can be downloaded using SFS Manager (or here: http://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/sfs/800/).
As usual, Fatdog does not update from any of its previous versions.
If you're not familiar with the changes between earlier Fatdogs (721) and 800, you may want to read this post from the beta thread; most of which are still applicable.
Enjoy.
