The current CD install a RedHat 6.0 with an RTAI/RTL kernel. I would
recomend that you wait until the new CD is released (we are on the final
runs of beta test) if you want the convenience and ease of installation
for RTAI and the tools we provide. Note that the new CD installs on top
of an existing Linux distribution, rather than installing a new Linux
(it supports RedHat 6.2, Caldera 2.3, Mandrake 7.1, Suse 6.4, Debian 2.1
and probably more we haven't tested). If you only want RTAI and Linux,
then you can just download the kernel from kernel.org and the RTAI code
from rtai.org.
Regards, Stuart
