Distribution Release: OpenLab GNU/Linux 3.2 |
|
A new version of OpenLab GNU/Linux has been released: "It gives me great pleasure to announce the release of OpenLab GNU/Linux version 3.2. OpenLab is a different approach to the design of a GNU/Linux distribution, built on the premise of 'working out of the box'. Version 3.2 makes significant strides toward an ever greater user experience. For example, OpenLab makes the setup of a thin-client server easier than it has ever been before. All you need to do is say 'yes' when asked if you want it. No further user input is required. ... Our prime focus has always been, and will always be education, and OpenLab includes many unique innovations and designs that allow it to function ever better in school environments." Read the rest of the release announcement. Download: openlab-3.2-disk1.iso (603MB), openlab-3.2-disk2.iso (681MB), openlab-3.2-disk3.iso (667MB). OpenLab GNU/Linux is a Slackware-based South African distribution designed primarily for use in educational institutions.
