Would be so much nicer if Red Hat also realised this [1] and made
some
of those beta isos public.
I was really looking forward to testing this but when my download
completes in 3 hours I might have forgotten about it completely.
I'm too used to 10MB/s local mirror speeds :/
Bringing down the barrier for people to test and report problems for
RHEL
Betas is something we have to discuss together with Red Hat. I
discussed
some of my wishes in an earlier blog post:
http://dag.wieers.com/blog/rhel-beta-test-sig
but the dialogue has not taken place yet.
I think this is one of those very profound win-win situations that
we have
to take advantage of.
As per the suggestion on Dag's blog i would be very happy to
participate in any sort of beta for 5.3. I don't have a RHN
subscription so my ability to get hold of the iso is limited but there
are a couple of features in 5.3 that would be of use for my company's
current projects
- so much so that we may be delaying a proposed roll out for them
Ok, what may not have been obvious from my mail (and I will make sure
I fix that next announcement) is that anyone should be able to
register on RHN for downloading these Betas.
So you do not have to be a customer to get an RHN account.
If there was to be any sort of CentOS based testing effort then i
would like to throw my hat (and a dell 2950III) into the ring
Well, you could become part of this effort. I would like to create one
or more pages on the Wiki just for this purpose. We could allow people
to write down what they tested, on what hardware and the items that
failed. And in case they made any bugreports, we could link them on
the same wiki-page.
The aim obviously is to report as much to Red Hat as possible, but
also to record what problems others could verify in helping those
reports. The other aim is to make sure we have a good idea of what
problems we can expect in the upcoming CentOS 5.3 for the release notes.
What kernel version is in 5.3? Still 2.6.18?
there is an IPsec patch now in 2.6.27, BEET mode for ESP.
I need this mode for HIP in kernel mode, and have yet to successfully
patch the kernel myself (the HIPL team does supply a BEET patch for the
2.6.18 kernel, but...).
So I do not have a RH account. I suspect corporate does, but I am too
distant from them to get access.
how might I go about getting attention on the BEET ESP mode?
