Release for CentOS-6.0 Minimal i386 and x86_64
by Karanbir Singh 29 Jul '11

29 Jul '11

We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of CentOS-6.0/minimal for i386 and x86_64 Architectures. The minimal install iso media is an alternative install to the main CentOS-6.0 distribution and comes with a trimmed down, preselected rpm list. However, it still runs off the standard installer, with all the regular features that one would expect from the main distribution, except the rpm selection screen has been disabled. Running an install from this media will not allow you to change the rpms selected for install. Release Notes for this media can be found at : http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOSMinimalCD6.0 +++++++++++++++++++++++ Download SHA256SUMs : CentOS-6.0-x86_64-minimal.iso: 4ac5656cec3fc6e614bd92b6942a02de004227db6d0a4b7745a99b77676b36e7 CentOS-6.0-i386-minimal.iso b620e8ce296323be7d9fa97ec39da7be9eb5551b3b7a70c6548e8b28e6a7ee87 The ISO files are avilable at : http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/6/isos/i386/ http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/6/isos/x86_64/ Since the size for these files is relatively small, no torrent files are being released. +++++++++++++++++++++++ NOTES: We have tried to test this install for most deployment roles, including VMs and physical machines. And with lvm, mdraid, iscsi and dm-multipath environments. These images also contain the complete recovery and rescue environment found in the main distribution. You should be able to use these images from CD media, DVD media, USB storage devices. We do not recommend these images be used with kickstart files written for the main CentOS distro images. An install will setup yum to work with the regular default CentOS 6.0 repositories. Once the installed machine instace boots it should work just like a regular CentOS machine, with only the bare minimal rpms installed. All package management, networking and storage related functionality should already be in place. +++++++++++++++++++++++ There is no upstream Minimal media product. These ISOs only contains content found within the primary CentOS-6.0 distribution. No package from outside the distribution was included and no package has been changed from whats included in the base distribution. We appreciate all forms of feedback about these images, including specific application inclusion requests or feature changes in future releases. The best place to provide this feedback is via the centos-devel mailing list ( http://lists.centos.org/ ) and feature requests via the issue tracker ( http://bugs.centos.org/ ). Special thanks to Manuel Wolfshant for requesting and then doing a lot of the work to make the minimal disk images happen; And everyone on the CentOS QA team who contributed their time and resources towards testing these images. Enjoy! -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh ICQ: 2522219 | Yahoo IM: z00dax | Gtalk: z00dax GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

Release for CentOS-6.0 LiveDVD i386 and x86_64
by Karanbir Singh 28 Jul '11

28 Jul '11

We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of CentOS-6.0 LiveDVD for i386 and x86_64 architectures. Detailed Release Notes are available at http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOSLiveDVD6.0 +++++++++++++++++++++++ Overview The CentOS-6.0 LiveDVD is meant to be a Linux environment suited to be run directly from either DVD media or USB storage devices. It does not need any persistent storage on a machine, which also makes it a suitable recovery environment. The LiveDVDs are setup to run as full desktop environments and include most of the applications used in this role. +++++++++++++++++++++++ Download SHA256SUMs : CentOS-6.0-x86_64-LiveDVD.iso: e604450174c646a6590156e3c6c29f3eca0d6b2a8d0f9745a4ea11dff35f0abc CentOS-6.0-i386-LiveDVD.iso: cb76a6bcd14c7397d756c5a5fdfede4bd004a7a6f1cef8f35977ba310a4b14aa The CentOS-6.0 LiveDVD is released to all external mirrors and available for download now. List of mirrors is available at these urls : http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/6/isos/i386/ http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/6/isos/x86_64/ Due to the size of these DVDs, torrents have also been released and are being seeded at this time. The torrents are available at the same url as the iso files. Once you download the images, its important to verify contents using the sha256sum utility, against the published sums here. +++++++++++++++++++++++ Notes You can now install the Live environment to your hard disk (which wasn’t possible with the 5.x Live medias). Please note that you need more that 512Mb of ram to be able to use that ‘install to hard drive’ feature (If you have less than 512Mb of ram, you can install to disk but in text-mode, meaning that instead of clicking on the desktop icon, you have to launch a gnome-terminal and launch the ‘liveinst’ command from within the terminal) There is no upstream Live media product. The Live media produced within the CentOS Project is based on and around the livemedia tools from the Fedora Project. These LiveDVD only contains content found within the primary CentOS-6.0 distribution. No package from outside the distribution was included and no package has been changed from whats included in the base distribution. We appreciate all forms of feedback about these LiveDVD, including specific application inclusion requests or feature changes in future releases. The best place to provide this feedback is via the centos-devel mailing list ( http://lists.centos.org/ ) and feature requests via the issue tracker ( http://bugs.centos.org/ ). Special thanks to Fabian Arrotin for taking up the LiveCD and LiveDVD efforts, and to everyone on the QA team who worked through the issues and helped build, test and release these images. And to Patrice Guay for his work in setting up the Live Media effort within the CentOS Project. -- Karanbir Singh The CentOS Project irc: z00dax, #centos(a)irc.freenode.net

Release for CentOS-6.0 LiveCD i386 and x86_64
by Karanbir Singh 25 Jul '11

25 Jul '11

We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of CentOS-6.0 LiveCD for i386 and x86_64 architectures. Detailed Release Notes are available at http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOSLiveCD6.0 +++++++++++++++++++++++ Overview The CentOS-6.0 LiveCD is meant to be a Linux environment suited to be run directly from either CD media or USB storage devices. It does not need any persistent storage on a machine, which also makes it a suitable recovery environment. Due to space constraints, it was not possible to include all the traditional desktop applications on the LiveCD. You can though enjoy a Gnome basic desktop, view and modify pictures with gthumb and the Gimp, browsing the web with Firefox, send emails with Thunderbird and connect to your favorite Instant Messaging network with Pidgin +++++++++++++++++++++++ Download SHA256SUMs : CentOS-6.0-x86_64-LiveCD.iso: f7239593e425ea4c26c5292e23b5e284e64779f54af395486cf1fd4b3e6c7f3b CentOS-6.0-i386-LiveCD.iso: c4e09a2152a8e1b17dc6704eb8d7455c13f615e40432cb0b4b07f65850948628 The CentOS-6.0 LiveCD is released to all external mirrors and available for download now. List of mirrors is available at these urls : http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/6/isos/i386/ http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/6/isos/x86_64/ There are no torrent files for these LiveCD images since the overall size of download is small enough that it can be easily downloaded via http and ftp mirrors. Given the very large and diverse CentOS Mirror network, we expect most people to get fairly good download rates for these iso images. Once you download the images, its important to verify contents using the sha256sum utility, against the published sums here. +++++++++++++++++++++++ Notes You can now install the Live environment to your hard disk (which wasn’t possible with the 5.x Live medias). Please note that you need more that 512Mb of ram to be able to use that ‘install to hard drive’ feature (If you have less than 512Mb of ram, you can install to disk but in text-mode, meaning that instead of clicking on the desktop icon, you have to launch a gnome-terminal and launch the ‘liveinst’ command from within the terminal) There is no upstream Live media product.
