Development Release: rPath Linux 2.0 Beta 3 |
| Michael K. Johnson has announced the third development release of rPath Linux 2.0, an appliance operating system featuring the Conary package management: "The third beta test snapshot toward rPath Linux 2 has been released. New in this release: all updates, particularly security updates, since rPath Linux 2 Beta 2 have been incorporated into this release; Anaconda installation onto iSCSI now works correctly; the kernel portion of open-vm-tools is now in kernel:vmware instead of kernel:runtime to facilitate removing those modules on systems that need to run the host modules instead; the telnet-server package is now available; the splashy boot/shutdown graphical splash screen program is now gracefully quiet by default, preventing it from presenting scary-looking error messages in normal operation...." Here is the full release announcement. Download (SHA1): rpath-2.beta3-x86-dvd1.iso (826MB), rpath-2.beta3-x86_64-dvd1.iso (885MB). |
