NEW • Development Release: Lunar Linux 1.6.0 RC3 |
| The third release candidate of the source-based Lunar Linux distribution is now available for testing: "Here is the third release candidate for the final 1.6.0-i686 series installation ISO. As with rc1 and rc2, this is a testing release and approaches the quality we are looking for in the -final release. A lot of small bugs in rc1 and rc2 have been addressed making this an extremely useful release. This release has several feature enhancements over rc1 and rc2. The most noticeable is the Linux Software RAID tool that allows you to install Lunar on Software RAID easily. Precompiled SELINUX enhanced kernels can now be installed, and the server-targeted kernels should have better IO performance. The installer now uses normal console logins and fully enabled shells." The release announcement. Download: lunar-1.6.0-i686-rc3.iso.bz2 (256MB, MD5). |

| About Lunar Linux |
| Lunar is a source based Linux distribution with a unique package management system which builds each software package, or module, for the machine it is being installed on. Though it can take a while to do a complete Lunar installation it's worth it as it tends to be quite fast, once installed! In the beginning Lunar was a fork of Sorcerer GNU Linux (SGL). The fork occurred in late January to early February of 2002 and was originally made up of a small group of people who wanted to collaboratively develop and extend the Sorcerer technology. The original name for the project was Lunar-Penguin but the group decided to re-christen it Lunar Linux while the Lunar-Penguin name has become a sort of umbrella which the team could use if they decide to collaboratively develop something besides Lunar Linux. |
