Always Current Lineox Enterprise Linux 4.076 with Update 3 Available

10. Mar. 2006

Always Current Lineox Enterprise Linux 4.076 adds Update 3 compiled
from the source packages from
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/enterprise/4AS/en/os/SRPMS
Release notes can be found at
http://www.lineox.net/RELEASE-NOTES-U3-x86-en.html
(x86 architecture) and
http://www.lineox.net/RELEASE-NOTES-U3-x86_64-en.html
(AMD 64-bit x86_64 architecture).

In the version 4.076 the installation environment is rebuilt, so it
offers better hardware support during the installation. See the
release notes for full information.

The x86_64 release requires either AMD Opteron or Athlon64 CPU based
computer. Some new Intel Xeon and Pentium IV processors with EM64T
(Extended Memory 64 Technology) will also be able to run this 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. All the
needed changes to source code are made automatically. These include
replacing some graphics files and changing or replacing some other
files mainly because of trademark issues while retaining full 
compatibility. The resulting 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. 


Pricing and availability

Always Current Lineox Enterprise Linux download quota costs 10 Euros
for one disk set and 15 Euros for two disk sets. Version 4.076 is also
available for free from our mirror servers and from the Lineox server
later next week.

Version 4.076 will also be available on a pressed DVD9 format disk
which contains both architectures and extras like Dag and AT
repositories, RHCS, RHAPS, and GFS. Expected release is around the end
of March and price 10 Euros.
