FrameOS 5.5 Beta 1 Released

Phew! It has been a crazy month… but finally I made it. It’s my pleasure to announce the immediate availability of FrameOS 5.5 Beta1!!! www.frameos.org FrameOS is a CentOS 5 based Linux distribution targeting the following users: 1. DevOps * Opscode Chef is installed by default. One less step to tame the DataCenter beasts. * Built-in kickstart profiles to perform a single step installation. 2. Ruby Enthusiast and Developers * Ruby Enterprise 2010.2 release as the default ruby installation. * Rubygems 1.3.6 installed. 3. Virtualization Gurus * Gitco Xen 3.4 and 4.0 ready * Modern kvm/libvirt stack. 4. Freedom Lovers This is the very best OpenSource we all love. No closed source here, no sales crap in the middle ;). Send me feedback, participate in Google groups and open bugs. No matter what you feel about the distro, share it! — I’d love to send special thanks to the CentOS crew, FrameOS would not exist without them. You have taught me so much, and brought me so far… Thank you! To the ELFF, Gitco, EPEL and RPMForge repo maintainers: You’ve made my ops live easier for quite a few years, come and visit me @ Barcelona, I owe you a couple of beers ;) To the Ruby and Chef community: You made infrastructure automation fun for all of us! Kinda exhausted right now!. I’ll post tomorrow what’s coming to the next beta, links to relevant docs, roadmap and some other stuff. Have fun!
