AdvanceCD v2.0.0 has been released at :

	http://advancemame.sourceforge.net

Advance CD is a bootable ISO image of a minimal Linux
distribution containing the AdvanceMAME and AdvanceMESS
emulators and the AdvanceMENU frontend.

You can boot this CD in any PC and play the contained games
without any installation. The default distribution contains
the arcade games Gridlee, Poly Play and Robby Roto and it
uses only 16 Mbyte leaving the whole CD for your roms.

This is the list of changes:

* Simplified the ISO image creation process.
* The Scale2x effect is now automatically enabled for games with
  a small screen.
* Added a new graphics skin for the booting process and for AdvanceMENU.
* Before the poweroff you have time to eject the CDROM.
* Now only the the Linux FrameBuffer drivers are used. The SVGALIB
  library was removed.
* Disabled all the special MAME keys and menus. Now you can only
  play games.
* Upgraded AdvanceMAME 0.73.1, AdvanceMESS 0.73.0.1 and
  AdvanceMENU 2.2.12.
* Upgraded Linux kernel 2.4.22 + i810fb/savagefb/vmwarefb patches.
* Upgraded ALSA library 0.9.6.
* Upgraded SYSLINUX 2.06.
