Now RHEL/CentOS won't be able to run on PC Engines ALIX hardware (with PAE enabled in CentOS 6 the kernel needed recompiled, but that's not too horrible). I opted to run another distro, so I never went through all the work for ALIX hardware. In a way it's a shame... At the same time I can see why RH is going x86_64 only ... much hardware in data centers is 64bit capable and running 64bit OSes. And they're also will be supporting three releases (5, 6, 7) for a period of time as well. It's probably a good time to consider other alternatives. :-/ Fedora, Debian, Voyage, OpenWrt, Gentoo, etc, etc. Unless it's embedded hardware ... by the time EL6 isn't supported I'll be you'll have a beefier x86_64 machine as a firewall! :) > > -- > LF > > > > > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS at centos.org > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos > -- ---~~.~~--- Mike // SilverTip257 //
