Anaconda is the installer for both Fedora Core and RHEL. There are many packages that are common to both since Fedora Core is the proving ground for RHEL. The package versions do differ slightly between the two - you'll likely find features in the RHEL kernel that haven't been backported to the Fedora Core kernel that the particular RHEL release based on and instead were incorporated into the latest Fedora Core kernel. > How can we differentiate between Fedora stable Vs Official redhat stable To differentiate Enterprise Kernel from Fedora, cat /etc/redhat-release. -- Ed Wilts, RHCE Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
