Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) Beta 1 Released
Sponsored Link
This alpha features images for Edubuntu, Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Ubuntu GNOME, UbuntuKylin, Ubuntu Studio and Xubuntu.
Pre-releases of Saucy Salamander are not encouraged for anyone needing a stable system or anyone who is not comfortable running into occasional, even frequent breakage. They are, however, recommended for Ubuntu developers and those who want to help in testing, reporting, and fixing bugs as we work towards getting this release ready.
At the end of the 12.10 development cycle, the Ubuntu desktop and server flavours decided that they would reduce the number of milestone images going forward and the focus would concentrate on daily quality and fortnightly testing rounds known as cadence testing. Based on that change, the Ubuntu products themselves will not have a Beta 1 release. Their first milestone release will be the beta release on the 26th of September 2013. Other Ubuntu flavours have the option to release using the usual milestone schedule.

I was not able to complete installation-every time I tried to edit the root & home partitions on the drive I was using (I have multiple drives and os’s) the install would just freeze. I finally just gave up; I will probably try again when 13.10 is released.
