Release of MX Linux 18.3 Distribution

Took place release of a lightweight distribution MX Linux 18.3, created through collaboration between communities formed around the antiX and MEPIS projects. The release is based on a Debian package base with enhancements from the antiX project and numerous custom applications that facilitate software setup and installation. By default, Xfce desktop is offered. For download 32-bit and 64-bit builds are available, sized at 1.4 GB (x86_64, i386).

The new release synchronizes the package base with Debian 9.9 (stretch) while borrowing some packages from the fresh antiX and MX repositories. Software versions have been updated, and the Linux kernel has been upgraded to version 4.19.37 with patches to protect against the vulnerability zombieload (the linux-image-4.9.0-5 kernel from Debian is also available for installation, which can be selected in the MX-PackageInstaller->Popular Apps interface).

All LiveUSB-related features from the antiX project have been ported over, including tools for saving data after reboot and the ability to configure the Live environment. The mx-installer (based on gazelle-installer) has been revamped to allow system configuration during package copying at installation and improved UEFI support.
