Hi, all,=20
I suppose RH White Box could also be used instead of RHAS 3.0/see = excerpt below/.
Not in production, of course.

Hmmm...did RH change something? When the Developers trial came out = (last
year?), we paid our $60 and did download RHAS2.1 ISOs. The problem with = 2.1
is that it's so old, it wouldn't install properly on our new-ish = hardware.
At the time, I wasn't able to find any way to update the drivers, so I deemed it as "Not Viable".

The thing is, it's Linux. In order for it to be "Linux", they have to = make
the source publicly available. You may want to look at http://www2.uibk.ac.at/zid/software/unix/linux/rhel-rebuild.htm for a mini-HOWTO on building RHAS 2.1 from source. Hopefully it's similar for RHAS3. At least the price is right! :)

GL!
