Linux Mint 9 Isadora is one of the best Ubuntu based distributions, a really cool distribution if you used Ubuntu 10.04 LTS you find out it has many things on common with Linux Mint Isadora with extra packages installed on it. before we go any further will list the release announcement and download options for it here

Using Isadora on virtual machine ” virtual box ” with this hardware specifications:

Same great look for linux Mint with green color, and many new wallpaper we mentioned it on this post

Featured improvements in this release: 30,000 applications catalogued and reviewable both online and in the new software manager, brand new incremental backup tool for both data and software selection, menu transparency and editable items, USB and Windows installers, 3 years support, look & feel improvements.

A lot of new features and software packages integrated with linux mint 9 isadora check this release announcement for more information.

Using live session on the virtual machine, so it’s not expected to know exactly if this good booting time or not. but overall working good.

a really cool backup tool for linux mint some kind like apttocd application, to backup specific packages installed on the machine and you can restore it later.

also improves linux mint main menu with extra look for transparent, and same other features usually see for 3d and cube and fading…

Awesome software manager a really cool organized way to pick your applications you would like to install, and optimized with different categories and subcategories. also you can add your own review on the listed applications there and make a vote for it.

Overall it’s a great distribution working great, and still waiting for FluxBox window manager version that will come from Linux Mint community soon.

That’s it for now :)
