The Pentoo Team has announced last evening, September 6th, the second Beta release of the upcoming Pentoo 2012.0 operating system based on Gentoo Linux.

Pentoo 2012.0 Beta 2 comes with a default hardened setup and it is now available for download as a torrent.

"It's my favorite time of year again, the really short lul between Defcon and Derbycon. I've used my freetime to polish up all the bug reports from our Defcon Beta release and kick out a shiny new release. Many surprises await you, but I'm not building up a bugfix beta more than I already have."

"Live to Hack, Hack to Live. If my dedication isn't obvious, today is my Anniversary but here I am uploading betas, etc. You will not find a team of volunteers more dedicated than ours, so test the release and submit bugs so we can make it even better for you," Michael Zanetta said in the official release announcement.
