https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/index.html
There is a great deal of information within those documents not listed
here.

== Media ==
You can find the release media at:
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/7.1/x86_64/iso/
NOTE: The 'everything' dvd image requires a Dual-Layer (DL) compatible
drive for both burning and booting off of.
Alternatively the livecd-iso-to-disk utility is able to convert
this to USB successfully. A USB device of sufficient size is
required.
Alternatively you can utilize the dd command to write the
raw image to a USB device.

== UEFI Secure Boot ==
The status of UEFI Secure Boot for Scientific Linux is noted in detail
at:
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/7.1/x86_64/release-notes/#_about_uefi_secure_boot
Booting SL7 with Secure Boot enabled works but requires a manual step.
This is because the "shim" has not been signed by the UEFI CA.
Instructions are included within the SL7 Release Notes.
