Red Hat Linux/Intel 5.2 [software]
Changes from Previous Version
Installation Class - This is a much more simplified installation procedure
allowing the user to select a workstation or server install. The install will then
automatically partition based your system and take care of basic defaults. All
the power of the previous install methods are still available via a "custom"
install as well.
Multiple SCSI support during install (you can now easily install to
systems with more than one SCSI adapter)
apache 1.3 (the worlds most popular WWW server)
gimp 1.0 (the long awaited release of the popular graphics package)
Shipping with 2.0.36 kernel, Linux 2.2 ready (install 2.1 development
kernels now or be prepared for the Linux 2.2 kernel)
updated PCMCIA support (support for some of the latest PCMCIA
cards)
better sound support (more supported cards)
In addition to the new Installation Class and other features, there are many
