Parted Magic 2012_10_10

This version of Parted Magic includes GParted 0.14.0 with LVM support and Xorg Server 1.13.0 with the latest drivers. I noticed some Reiser4 patches for the 3.5 kernel so it was included again. The reiser4progs package was patched to work with GParted and the 3.x kernels. Rdesktop was removed in favor of FreeRDP and it’s GUI Remmina. Two plugins were added to SpaceFM so you can mount SAMBA shares and use ClamAV directly from the file manager. Several minor bugs have been addressed. A large number of programs have been updated.
