Wow, the forum has a new background to match the release of Flidas.
Some screenshots.
Please don't download directly from cdimage.trisquel.info, go to https://trisquel.info/download and use the mirror selector! The main server is getting slammed (nice problem to have...).
Nice! Please help others download it by seeding the torrent!
Congratulations!
How safe is it now to
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
from Trisquel 7?
The safest method is to use update-manager (graphical) or do-release-upgrade (text).
Thank you very much.
do-release-upgrade worked.
On Flidas :-)
Awesome! Thanks so much to quidam, jxself, gnutastyc, etc. for their hard work. Trisquel is an extremely important project. I'm thankful to be a part of this community.
Marvellous news. I'm in the pub at the moment. Looking forward to finishing up my back ups and doing a fresh install. Thank you to everyone. Today is a good day.
Congratulations, everybody!
You didn't give up and achieved something great.
In case anyone is wondering when they can start posting whiny "where is Trisquel 9" threads, here's a countdown clock. https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?iso=20200101T00&p0=136&font=cursive
Awesome. Get them in early.
Bravo !
Congratulations.
Thanks for the great work.
I have three questions:
Where is the public pgp key for the .asc file ?
Why not sign the hash files instead of the .iso ? or both ?
Why put a separate file for each hash ?
> Where is the public pgp key for the .asc file ?
Same place as the isos: https://cdimage.trisquel.info/trisquel-images/trisquel-archive-signkey.gpg
The link is displayed in the download results page.
> Why not sign the hash files instead of the .iso ? or both ?
Both are, e.g. https://cdimage.trisquel.info/trisquel-images/sha256sum.txt.asc
> Why put a separate file for each hash ?
Because that way the download results page (the one you see after you click on download) can link to the specific hash of what you downloaded, instead of a more confusing list.
At least!
Remember to share the news with your friends.
Well done. Thank you to everyone involved for making this release happen.
Horrah! Kudos to all the folk involved. A wonderful piece of work here. Also I can finally install it on a Libreboot system from the GUI, had been having lots of trouble with that for the past few months.
ACC Academic Computer Club at Umeå University Sweden has a mirror that has been updated to include Trisquel 8.
I have Trisquel 7 running on a Lenovo Thinkpad X200 that I got from Vikings. Is it safe for me to upgrade to Trisquel 8? Is there any software that could end up breaking or stop working as a result of this upgrade?
What are the advantages of upgrading to Flidas from Belenos?
Thanks!
Personal preference, I prefer fresh installs as in place upgrades can have unplanned surprises.
I am a translator!
Congrats and cheers!
*btw, does anyone know where can I download Triskiello 6? 8 is just too much modern for my taste. :P
...download Triskiello 6...
That would be telling, but I found Taranis.

Congratulations for the release of Trisquel 8 "Flidas"! :D A big thank you to everyone who contributed to making this release possible, and of course especially to quidam. Thanks a lot! :)
Great job! Downloading mini version for wifes 12 year old Gateway latpop, I prefer fresh installs over upgrades.
I will also test-run the main version on the desktop.
