You can read our official product announcement for this release here.ĬentOS conforms fully with Red Hat's redistribution policy and aims to have full functional compatibility with the upstream product. The CentOS Linux distribution is a stable, predictable, manageable and reproducible platform derived from the sources of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 1. Hello and welcome to the eighth CentOS-7 release.
Translations of these release notes are available for the following languages: Packages released as updates with older packages on the install media.Packages added by CentOS that are not included upstream.Packages removed from CentOS that are included upstream.Verifying Downloaded Installation Images.
More important than the list is the install testing to make sure it all works before release. x86_64 is the main supported architecture and we don’t currently plan to add more isos, certainly not without help maintaining the file lists that a DVD iso would require. If we eliminate the Everything ISO we might do DVD only. Developing the file lists that can make the DVD installer work OK takes time we don’t really have.Ģ) Adding 20 or 30 more GB of to our mirrors, when scaled to 600 or so mirrors worldwide is a lot of extra storage and bandwidth. two of which are:ġ) It is very chaotic at point release time and people want things faster than we can release them.
I will never say never, but unless we have some community people develop the file lists for point release time, I don’t see us doing more ISOs type for several reasons. I would say that the best way to install CentOS is with the Minimal install and yum groups afterwards. It requires a unique package list to only include items needed from the installer. It takes a bunch of extra work / testing to develop the DVD install ISO. which are Everything, Minimal, NetInstall. Currently all the Alternative arches get the same ISOs.
