Lineox Releases Lineox Enterprise Linux 4.0 x86_64 and First Always
Current x86_64 Lineox Enterprise Linux 4.x Versions
14. Mar. 2005
Lineox has released today Lineox Enterprise Linux 4.0 x86_64 version
which is built from the source packages available from
ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/4/en/os/x86_64/SRPMS
Lineox has replaced some graphics files and changed or replaced some
other files mainly because of trademark issues while retaining full
compatibility. This release includes also updated packages which were
built from 28 source packages available from
ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/enterprise/4AS/en/os/SRPMS
Yumex, a graphical front-end to yum package management system was
added to x86_64 version because apt doesn't properly support multiple
architecture packages. Lineox Enterprise Linux 4.0 x86_64 has only
i386 versions of OpenOffice.org and HelixPlayer. Also many browser
plug-ins are available only as x86 versions, so Lineox Enterprise
Linux 4.0 x86_64 version has many x86 libraries. When used as server
oriented system Lineox Enterprise Linux 4.0 x86_64 version shoudn't
need any x86 packages, but as workstation oriented system there is
some need for them and then using apt as a package management system is
impossible. Apt and and it's graphical front-end synaptic are still
included and preferred as more mature package management solutions.
Lineox has released also two Always Current x86_64 versions of Lineox
Enterprise Linux 4.0 to syncronize it with x86 version.
Always Current Lineox Enterprise Linux is a version of Lineox
Enterprise Linux 4.0 which is constantly updated and contains only
current versions of program packages. This means that there is no
instant need to download and update the system after installation and
the system is secure right from the start.
Lineox has an automated system running on a cluster which builds new
binary rpm packages as soon as new source code is available. New rpm
packages are usually available in less than 12 hours after source code
release. After that Lineox builds Always Current Lineox Enterprise
Linux disks automatically, but because of the time it takes to
transfer the disk images to our web server, they are available from 2
to 12 hours after we release new packages.
The current Always Current Lineox Enterprise Linux 3.x version is
3.071 and Lineox began building x86_64 versions starting from version
3.032, so Lineox has already released well over hundred Always Current
version in little over one year. Lineox expects to release Always
Current Lineox Enterprise Linux 4.x versions about once a week.
Pricing and availability
Lineox Enterprise Linux 4.0 x86_64 version CD and DVD images are
available for free from our mirrors: GaTech in the USA and Belnet in
Belgium via http, ftp and rsync. Always Current version download
quotas can be purchased from Lineox web site at
http://www.lineox.net/. One image (set) quota costs 10 Euros and two
15 Euros. Also 4 CD-R set and DVD+D are available from Lineox at 14.90
Euros.
