Oreon 11 (Beta Build 2610) - October 2, 2026

This is a beta build for Oreon 11 (Release Pack 1).

Changelog:
- Fixed non-ext4 fs types in Centrio (still needs more testing)
- Added a dual boot visualizer in Centrio to make dual booting easier
- Added support for USB target installations (still needs more testing)

- Introduced Oreon Root Protection, which offers ext4 snapshots and rollback, backup and restore, and multi-fs support
- Updated Oreon System Manager, it is now mostly functional
- Linux Kernel 7.2.8
- Several package updates with more to come

Build Notes:
- This is a beta release
- Oreon Defense will say "Threat found" during installation due to Centrio writing to the disk, this will be fixed in the next beta build
