Is this distro officially supported > now or still only on a roadmap? I did a beta Appliance version based on 7 last year. I quit pushing it last Fall after coming to the realization that Kickstart (the subsystem that allows for automated installations, which we rely heavily upon for doing the initial setup) was broken in some fundamental ways in 7, especially when used with UEFI BIOSes. Now that the first ‘point update’ (RH doesn’t call it this anymore with 7, but it’s what it amounts to) is out, I plan to revisit this. However, once the installation issues are sorted, Rivendell works fine on CentOS 7. In fact, it’s the primary system I do development on these days, and we have production-grade RPMs for it online [http://download.paravelsystems.com/CentOS/7/]. Now if I could just figure out how to turn off Gnome 3’s idiotic ‘hot corners’ feature, life would be perfect… Cheers! |----------------------------------------------------------------------| | Frederick F.
