My ElementaryOS 0.4.0 Loki live ISO pre-beta build

[vishalrao]

Woot! FYI, I think I've been able to build a Loki live ISO today - Friday, May 6th - (amd64 and apparently boots both bios and uefi - tried virtualbox and vmware player) - currently uploading the ISO to https://goo.gl/v9mX1j - as soon as I boot/test it on my physical PC. Feel free to test (AT YOUR OWN RISK!) and report anything new compared to Freya. For me it looks like minor UI cleanups and I'm sure there are a bunch of bugfixes but nothing earth shattering

As you might know Elementary will release Loki Beta 1 "soon" but til then no publically available test ISOs, so made my own after coming across this Reddit thread mentioning to try self-build: https://www.reddit.com/r/elementaryos/comments/43r7ey/elementary_os_loki_alpha_unofficial_builds/ with this comment: https://www.reddit.com/r/elementary...ntary_os_loki_alpha_unofficial_builds/czqv9r2

Well well, just yesterday I ran the liveUSB on Elementary.
Looks real neat and clean. And polished.
Many people can't even make out it is linux running and not Mac.

Looks like the first beta of Loki 0.4 is "real close now" based on 120+ bugs targeted for beta are fixed with hardly a handful remaining. But as always the devs say "it will be ready when it's ready" Looking forward to trying the official beta.
