WBEL4 Respin2 Now available

Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 06/21/2007 11:28 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

White Box Enterprise Linux 4 Respin 2 is now available for download via http/ftp/bittorrent. This covers Update5 from upstream plus a few errata released since. The recent OO.o and OO.o2 updates ARE included.

The previous policy of skipping every other Update from upstream is being reconsidered in light of the year gap it has caused. Every quarter was a bit often for me to respin, annually seems a mite too far in the other direction.
