Lineox Enterprise Linux derives from the source RPM packages used to create Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Lineox Enterprise Linux is a top-notch distribution that is based on source RPM packages from which Red Hat Enterprise Linux is compiled. This means all programs included in various variations of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, such as Advanced Server (AS), Entry/Mid Server (ES), and Workstation (WS), can also be found in Lineox Enterprise Linux. Additionally, it contains programs from separately sold Red Hat Cluster Suite and Red Hat Developer Suite.
The beauty of Lineox Enterprise Linux is that it has replaced all files of Red Hat Enterprise Linux with restrictive copyrights, and user-visible references to Red Hat in the software have been removed. The only major difference between the two is that Red Hat, Inc. provides support options while Lineox, Inc. does not provide any support for Lineox Enterprise Linux with the base product. However, Lineox, Inc. is planning to provide binary package updates for Lineox Enterprise Linux as long as Red Hat, Inc. provides updates for Red Hat Enterprise Linux in source package format.
Lineox has an incredible automated system that runs on a cluster to build new binary rpm packages as soon as new source code is available. Usually, these packages are available within 12 hours after source code release, and Always Current Lineox Enterprise Linux disks are automatically built. Though it takes some time to transfer the disk images to the webserver, they are available up to 12 hours after the release of new packages.
Some people may wonder if an Always Current Lineox Enterprise Linux, which is released so often, is untested or unreliable. The truth is that this system is as tested and reliable as one installed from "base release" and updated later. The only difference is the saved time and higher security right from the start.
The latest release of Lineox Enterprise Linux 4.096 comes with Update 4 and features a rebuilt installation environment with better hardware support. For best results, the x86_64 release requires an AMD Opteron or Athlon64 CPU-based computer. Some new Intel Xeon and Pentium IV processors with EM64T (Extended Memory 64 Technology) will also be able to run this version. Please refer to release notes for detailed information.
