We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of CentOS-6.1
install media for i386 and x86_64 Architectures. Release Notes for 6.1
are availble at http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS6.1 -
we recommend everyone looks through those once.
CentOS-6.1 is based on the upstream release EL 6.1 and includes packages
from all variants. All upstream repositories have been combined into
one, to make it easier for end users to work with.
All machines running CentOS-Release-CR on 6.0 would already be running
code that is included in the 6.1 install media. We highly recommend
everyone use the CR repository in order to get all bugfix and security
updates as soon as possible. More information on the CR repository can
be found at : http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/CR
+++++++++++++++++++++++
Upgrading from CentOS-4 or CentOS-5:
We recommend everyone run through a reinstall rather than attempt an
inplace upgrade from CentOS-4 or CentOS-5
+++++++++++++++++++++++
Downloading CentOS-6.1 for new installs:
When possible, consider using torrents to run the downloads. In most
cases you will find its also the fastest means to download the distro.
There are currently over a thousand people seeding CentOS-6 and it's
possible to get upto 100mbps downloads via these torrents.
Torrent files for the DVD's are available at :
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6.1/isos/i386/CentOS-6.1-i386-bin-DVD1to2.t…http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6.1/isos/x86_64/CentOS-6.1-x86_64-bin-DVD1t…
You can also use a mirror close to you :
http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=30
Most mirrors will allow direct DVD downloads over http, ftp and rsync.
Please keep in mind that not all mirrors are currently updated, some
might take upto another 24 hours before they have all the content.

+++++++++++++++++++++++
Sources and Debuginfo packages:
SRPMS and debuginfo packages are still making their way to the CentOS
mirrors and should be available within the next 24 to 48 hours. We are
prioritising the centos modified packages. In order to speed up the
release process for these packages, we are releasing them directly into
vault.centos.org; this drastically reduces the amount of traffic
generated for the mirrors and makes it possible for us to publish them
in sync with the binary code.
+++++++++++++++++++++++
Getting Help:
The best place to start when looking for help with CentOS is at the wiki
( http://wiki.centos.org/GettingHelp ) which lists various options and
communities who might be able to help. If you think there is a bug in
the system, do report it at http://bugs.centos.org/ - but keep in mind
that the bugs system is *not* a support mechanism.
+++++++++++++++++++++++
Contributing and joining the project:
We are always looking for people to join and help with various things in
the project. If you are keen to help out a good place to start is the
wiki page at http://wiki.centos.org/Contribute . If you have questions
or a specific area you would like to contribute towards that is not
covered on that page, feel free to drop in on
#centos-devel(a)irc.freenode.net for a chat or email the centos-devel list
(http://lists.centos.org)
+++++++++++++++++++++++
Thanks to everyone who contributed towards making 6.1, specially the
enormous effort put in by everyone on the QA team.
Enjoy!
