== Media ==
You can find the release media at:
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/7.1/x86_64/iso/

NOTE: The 'everything' dvd image requires a Dual-Layer (DL) compatible
        drive for both burning and booting off of.

        Alternatively the livecd-iso-to-disk utility is able to convert
        this to USB successfully.  A USB device of sufficient size is
        required.

        Alternatively you can utilize the dd command to write the
        raw image to a USB device.

== UEFI Secure Boot ==
The status of UEFI Secure Boot for Scientific Linux is noted in detail at:

http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/7.1/x86_64/release-notes/#_about_uefi_secure_boot

Booting SL7 with Secure Boot enabled works but requires a manual step.
This is because the "shim" has not been signed by the UEFI CA.
Instructions are included within the SL7 Release Notes.
