news 28 Posted January 23, 2013 Hello everyone, Fedora 18 GA release for the IBM System z is here. This time only one week (8 days to be correct) later than the primary and again more closer to primary when we count the number of available packages. Worth noting also here is that Anaconda, the Fedora installation program, has been extensively redesigned since Fedora 17. Documentation is available in the Installation Guide (http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/18/html/Installation_Guide/ch-guimode-x86.html) and is generally applicable to Fedora for System z. The links to the actual release are here: http://secondary.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora-secondary/releases/18/Fedora/s390x/ http://secondary.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora-secondary/releases/18/Everything/s390x/os/ and obviously on all sites that mirror the secondary arch content and we still have few :-) The first directory contains the normal installation trees as well as one DVD ISO with the complete release. Everything as usual contains, well, everything. Additional information about known issues, the current progress and state for future release, where and how the team can be reached and just anything else Fedora on IBM System z related can be found here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/s390x/18 For architecture specific release notes, please read it as there are changes in the interactive installation process. It's a wiki so don't hesitate to add your knowledge there. More information about Fedora on IBM System z can be found at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/s390x Thanks go out to everyone involved in making this happen!
