Scientific Linux是重新编译的Red Hat Enterprise
Linux,由费米国家加速器实验室和欧洲核研究组织(CERN)共同开发。尽管它旨在与Red Hat Enterprise
Linux完全兼容,它也提供了上游产品中未收入的额外软件包,这当中最值得一提的是各种文件系统,包括Cluster Suite和Global
File
System(GFS)、FUSE、OpenAFS、Squashfs、Unionfs,以及对Intel无线固件的无线网络支持、MadWiFi和
NDISwrapper、Sun Java及Java Development
Kit(JDK)、轻量级的IceWM窗口管理器、面向统计计算的R语言环境,以及Alpine邮件客户端。 Troy Dawson has announced the availability of the third alpha build of Scientific Linux 6: "We have released the third alpha of Scientific Linux 6. Fixed/changes in alpha 3: SELinux - you no longer get an error about SELinux during the install and the default install has it turned on; NTP error - we believe the NTP error was because of the SELinux problems we were having - when we fixed SELinux, the NTP error went away; package check - we have compared our packages with the upstream vendor's and found several differences; we have rebuilt around 240 packages, resulting in around 360 binary packages that have changed; revisor clean-up and documentation. Known issues: packages that haven't been built and aren't in the release include Ekiga, kdepim-runtime, perl-Sys-Virt. There are no specialized pictures shown during the install." More information about the release can be found in the release announcement and in the detailed release notes. Download: SL-6-i386-DVD1.iso (4,266MB, SHA1), SL-6-x86_64-DVD1.iso (4,226MB, SHA1). |
