Lineox Releases Enterprise Linux 4.0 Beta
Nov. 21. 2004
Lineox Enterprise Linux 4.0 (LEL) Beta is built from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.0 (RHEL) Beta 2 sources. Some source files were modified by a set of scripts and the whole build process is script based. The usage of scripts means that when the final RHEL 4.0 sources are released, the same scripts can be used to build LEL 4.0 in a very short time. The script which starts the package builds is cluster enabled, which further expedites the build speed. Lineox hopes to have the first LEL 4.0 release candidate ready and available for download from mirror sites in less than two days after RHEL 4.0 source availability.
The purpose of this beta is to check that all the needed changes are made and they are made correctly.
Availability
Lineox Enterprise Linux 4.0 Beta is available immediately for x86 architecture and x86_64 architecture version should be ready within a couple of days. See the address http://www.raimokoski.com/pub/lineox/4.0B2/i386/iso/ for DVD and CD image files.
