Don't know, sorry.

Ok, you can download the beta from the torrent:
http://torrent.freesbie.org/FreeSBIE-default-i386-20051218.iso.torrent

You can log in as user "freesbie" (no password) and try startxfce4 or
startfluxbox. You won't find the preconfigured menus and settings as
dave's still working on them, but you can run `openoffice.org' from a
terminal.

All you readers are strongly welcome if you can give it a test and
report a feedback, we are working hard for the new release ;)

Bye and thanks
