Slax 9.6.4

After a week of tweaking, I am happy to announce that a new Slax version has been released.
This new release contains many bug fixes and improvements.
List of changes include:

• Implemented scrollbar indicator for xlunch, so user can see if there are more icons beyond current screen
• X is now started on vt7 terminal as it is usually the case in all Linux distros (it was on vt2 before)
• User can select text-mode boot by specifying 'text' boot parameter
• Commands dir2sb and sb2dir were rewritten to act as conversion utilities (documentation)
• Added b43 broadcom firmwares
• Added genslaxiso command to create new ISO file, optionally adding new modules
• Gateway address is now properly set on PXE clients when pxe server is started in Slax
• xLunch launcher now starts GUI applications without unnecessary terminal window

I've also added a new documentation describing how to customize Slax

Enjoy! :-)
