Warning
Early release — back up your presets first Export your presets from HX Edit before using HXLinux. No data loss has been reported, but this is still an early release — better safe than sorry.
Première version — sauvegardez vos presets avant tout Exportez vos presets depuis HX Edit avant d'utiliser HXLinux. Aucune perte de données n'a été signalée, mais c'est encore une version de test — mieux vaut prévenir que guérir.
