[Stefan Smietanowski <stesmi@stesmi.com>]

Hi.

A new version of the RedHat 8.0 XFS DVD has been released.

It can be fetched from ftp://ftp.uninett.no/pub/linux/RH-XFS-DVD/

It should be up within an hour or so.

What's on this DVD:

* RedHat 8.0 "Psyche" CDs 1-5, including the SRPMS.
* All updates that were released up to and including 2003-01-14
   at 21:30 GMT. They are installed automatically when the system
   is installed. The DVD does not contain the old RPMS.
* The installer from the XFS 1.2pre1 release from SGI.
* All RPMS from the XFS 1.2pre5 release from SGI.

Version history:

0.0.1 2002-12-xx Initial version. Not released. Worked fine.
                  I could even verify the DVD with the MD5 function
                  of the installer. Had the bug that made it
                  ask for the XFS CD after verifying MD5.
0.0.2 2002-12-xx Updated version. Contained a few extra RPMS in
                  the contrib directory. Minor tweaks. Not released.
                  Had a fix for the problem above.
0.0.3 2002-12-xx Same as 0.0.2 but this time I didn't forget to
                  implant the MD5 sum into the image (stupid me).
                  Not released.
0.0.4 2002-12-12 Added latest updates. Verified it works from a DVD-RW.
                  Not released.
0.0.5 2002-12-13 Added latest updates: httpd and mod_ssl. Finished my
                  script that I use to build the DVD with. Not released.
0.0.6 2002-12-18 The ethernet and pcmcia on the laptop died and I had
                  the whole build system on there. Took some time to
                  get the relevant info off of it and start building
                  again. SGI also released 1.2pre4 of the kernel so
                  I updated all files to that. Added updated net-snmp.
                  Not released.
0.0.7 2002-12-20 Found out that the kernel from 1.2pre4 is wrong so I
                  waited for the respin to come out and released it
                  when it had. No other changes. First public release.
0.0.8 2003-01-10 Updated a few RPMs. No other changes. Not really
                  released.
0.0.9 2003-01-15 Updated some more RPMs. Switched to 1.2pre5 from SGI.

Thanx must go to: (In no particular order)
