Oz Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Oz Linux is a user-friendly Linux distribution. It allows the user to choose between a GNOME or KDE desktop environment install (or enable both and switch between the two by restarting the X Window System).

Oz Linux is named in honour of two Dutch physicist: Leonard Salomon Ornstein & Frederik Zernike, who developed the statistical mechanics Ornstein-Zernike equation, or OZ-equation. The OZ-equation is an integral equation for defining the direct correlation function. It basically describes how the correlation between two molecules can be calculated. Its applications can mainly be found in fluid theory.

Oz Linux utilizes the Conary software system which combines package management and Software Configuration Management, which replaces the need for programs like apt-get and yum. Conary accomplishes this with such features such as rollbacks, changeset (incremental) updates, and a distributed development model.

This version may only work in: (Xen Virtual Appliance)

i am working on a "regular" release now

[mykalreborn]

i've been thinking of switching to foresight, mainly because they have beagle and banshee installed by default, and because of the package manager. i'm curious though, do the repos get updated like in ubuntu - every 6 months when a new version is released - or faster than that?
and does the rpath package manager have a gui or is it terminal work?

[RAV TUX]

Ok I have published the DVD Install for the "regular" (Non-Xen Virtual Appliance) version

Oz Linux
Version 0.0.2-1-1
http://www.rpath.org/rbuilder/project/oz/

I will publish the x86 CD version and the 64bit versions later....
