Troy Dawson has announced the availability of the third beta build ofScientific6: “We have released the third beta of Scientific Linux 6. It is possible that this is our last beta, so if there is some feature you think we missed, let us know now. Changed since beta 2: SL desktop tweaks – added ‘add/remove packages’ entry to the KDE menu; OpenAFS first boot now works; LiveUSB Creator now has links to the latest SL6 live CDs; removed the option of reporting back to Red Hat; comps.xml – added group ‘spins’ which has the revisor and live packages, added group ‘repos’ which has the external repository packages, these packages are now available for installing during the normal install. Known issues: if you are on a x86_64 machine, install the Adobe repository, and install flash-plugin and/or AdobeReader_enu, you will get AdobeReader_ in addition to what you asked for.” Read the full release announcement for details.
