It released on January 17, 2013, and was added to the archive on February 14, 2022. == Description == The bootleg is a modified Ubuntu 1412.04 LTS ISO. This is the second release under the "StartOS" brand, as the first release to have the branding was 5.0, which is not in the archive. Just about everything you can think of has been completely redesigned as part of the "StartOS" rebranding to have a completely ~~new~~different look, straying as far away from the original purpose of "YLMF OS" as possible~~, which was to look like Windows XP to ease users into Linux~~. The OS ~~has~~now ~~been updated with~~uses a ~~brand spankin'~~ new desktop environment, called YMenu 5.0 ''(as of this release)'', which is ~~completely unique to this OS and only this OS, and is clearly NOT just~~ a rebranded version of GNOME 2.32.1. ~~No really! It's not GNOME at all!!!~~ It also comes with its own app store (called the Software Center), which seems to be entirely custom-written ~~for the most part~~, along with its own tutorial (~~although~~ in HTML format). It comes with an updated boot selector, where you can access DiskGenius 4.0.1 in DOS. == Changes from Ubuntu 1412.04 LTS == === Minor changes === * New boot selector graphics === Changes in pre-desktop procedures === * New setup graphics * New boot ~~screen~~graphics === Look and feel === * New default theme, and wallpaper * New icon set * New sound scheme == Software == * Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.236 * CHNTPW 110511 * Google Chromium 20.0.1132.57 * RAR 4.2.0 == Notes == === Remarks === * Wikipedia claims [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StartOS#Versions this version of StartOS is based on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS], which is clearly impossible since the release date of this bootleg contradicts the release of that Ubuntu version. Realistically, the bootleg is likely based on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, as it was current at the time of this bootleg's release. === Bootleg quirks === * Interestingly, <code>neofetch</code> does not recognize StartOS, unlike [[YLMF OS 3.0\|YLMF OS]]. * The Google Chromium homepage is set to "http://www.999.com/?OS".
