AV Linux 2017.4.9 Released!
An updated 2017 ISO for AV Linux has been released, it features a new
Audio Routing system,
many refinements and improvements and probably the most stable and
functional collection of
Applications across the board to date! The older AV Linux 2016.8.30
ISO's are currently still
in the FTPs and will be phased out soon, make sure to download the
2017.4.9 release.
