RH Taroon

Does anyone know where I can get the RH AS 3.0 or RHEL 3.0 taroon, Beta
or final release? I have checked most mirrors, but they all have RHEL
4.0 and not 3.0.
Any help please, needed for class project asap.

I haven't seen a RHEL 4 -- where is it?

I must not understand what you're lookning for -- RHEL3 is where your
would expect. Unless you were expecting rpm binaries instead of source
;)

Might be looking for the CD image files which are not available.

Saw that and it didn't register for some reason. Duh...

Think he is. Whitebox and ??? (forgets name) are the only iso images
I'm aware of that might work. Beta iso images are published but once
the RHEL-final comes out the beta dirs/files disappear quickly, IIRC.

You can get the Media Pack from Red Hat for about $25 if you have their
license to run it. This would be the final release, which you very likely
will not be satisfied with; I believe it came out in late 2002. They have
had regular small updates, and (IIRC) 4 big updates since then. So you
might say that 3.4 is the current version (though Red Hat do not talk that
way). For my system, I recently had to do a fresh install, and then had to
download and install 340 packages to bring the system up to date. YMWV.

Red Hat are unlikely to release RHEL 4 any sooner than the end of 2005,
but that is just my guess. How long was it between RHEL 2.1 and RHEL3?

Why not call Red Hat and ask? If you are in a hurry, that would be the
fastest way. But why would a class project need an unreleased version of
an OS distribution?

Yes, they are available. You just have to pay Red Hat for them :-)
