Mabox Linux 26.01 released

Mabox Linux 26.01 is out now, based on the latest stable packages available and including kernel version 6.18 LTS.  That's designed to be smooth and reliable; you can think of it as a fresh start with up-to-date security fixes baked in.

If you're impatient for this new release, you should find downloading an ISO image pretty straightforward from usual places like SourceForge or repo.maboxlinux.org.

Additionally, there's also an option if you prefer to look at the Linux 6.6 LTS kernel (nipping at your toes a bit behind). Some users might pick that version depending on their needs, maybe for specific hardware or features they can't wait for in the newer one.
