July 14, 2011 The first release candidate for Scientific Linux 6.1 has been released. Everything is looking very stable. We will let Release Candidate 1 (RC1) sit for a week and a half so people can find any last minute bugs. If everything goes well we expect RC2 on July 26, with the final release later that week. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- DOWNLOAD INFO ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- DVD and Net Install downloads are at http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6rolling/i386/iso/ http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6rolling/x86_64/iso/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since SL 6.1 Beta 2 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- * sl-indexhtml - Fixed minor typo's - de-DE translation provided by Christoph Galuschka - ja-JP translation provided by Tomoya Inoue - fr-FR translation provided by Manuel Wolfshant and Fabian Arrotin - We will accept translated pages up until July 25, 2011 * sl-release - Updated yum configurations to point to 6.1 instead of 6rolling. * sl-revisor-configs - Added iso_label and iso_basename to revisor.conf entries - Changed all configurations in conf.d to be 6x instead of 6.0 - Updated ks/sl6.match.tuv.install.dvd.*.ks to match 6.1 - Updated ks/sl6.all.groups.ks to match SL 6.1 groups * yum-conf-sl-other - Changed fastbugs and debuginfo from 6rolling to $releasever * Install Images - boot.iso -- Network install - Install-DVD -- Normal DVD install - Everything-DVD1 and DVD2 -- Has all the packages in the release -- If you install with these, do not select any extra repos - Please read the readme for more information about install media http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6rolling/i386/iso/readme http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6rolling/x86_64/iso/readme The Scientific Linux Development Team
