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 first alpha release of Scientific
Linux 6.1, a distribution built from source packages for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.1 and enhanced with extra application useful in
academic environments: "The first alpha for
Scientific Linux 6.1 has been released. This release has all the new
updated packages from the upstream vendors (TUV) update 1. It will
install, and it appears to work, but no major testing has been done.
Changes from 6.0 (in addition to TUV changes): Shawn Thompson created a
whole new graphical theme for Scientific Linux 6 called 'Edge Of Space';
we pulled the fastbugs and testing repositories out of the repository
file, they are now in their own RPM called yum-conf-sl-other - this is
done to fix the problem of people checking the fastbugs during the
install. Read the rest of the release announcement and release notes for further details. Download: SL-61-i386-2011-05-31-Install-DVD.iso (3,559MB, SHA256), (4,115MB, SHA256).
