  1. I had a perfectly respectable Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform.

    So naturally, I built an Arch Linux Execution Environment, taught pacman to answer to microdnf, and used it to patch RHEL systems.

    Surprisingly, it worked.

    This is evidence, not a recommendation.

  2. #CERN Transitioning To #Debian After Being A Longtime #RHEL Institution
    CERN formally even co-maintained the #ScientificLinux RHEL derivative
    CERN engineers had considered moving to #CentOSStream as a more natural pathway but ultimately they say "the straw that broke the camel's back" to abandon Red Hat Enterprise #Linux was the "-march=x86-64-v2" compiler flag default as "forced obsolescence" for old hardware.

  3. Infinito.Nexus 12.0: From a Single Server to a Scalable Sovereign Cloud

    Infinito.Nexus 12.0 is one of the most significant releases in the project’s history. Until now, Infinito.Nexus focused primarily on automating complete open-source environments on a single Docker Compose host. Version 12.0 introduces Docker Swarm as a second deployment mode, enabling applications to run across multiple servers, scale horizontally and recover from node failures. This release combines capabilities that are rarely delivered by one automation platform: More than 75 automatically deployable open-source applications One Single Sign-On experience backed by a unified user database Horizontal scaling across multiple cloud servers Automated backup and continuously tested disaster recovery Support across Debian, Arch Linux and RHEL-family distributions Filesystem-independent operation across ext4, btrfs and ZFS Together, these changes transform Infinito.Nexus from an application installer into a comprehensive foundation for scalable, sovereign cloud infrastructure.

  6. Äh, olisi kiva saada harvemmin käytettyyn #matkakannettava'an (kohta 11 vuotta vanha Asus Zenbook ultrakannettava) jokin h-i-t-a-a-s-t-i päivittyvä vakaa käyttis. #Debian13 siinä oli, se on ookoo(hko). Kokeilin #RockyLinux 10.1:tä, ookoo mutta #RHEL'in pakettivarastoista puuttuu minulle oleellisia ohjelmia. #GuixSystem ei edes asennu, koska langaton verkkokortti vaatisi suljettua koodia. #openSUSEKalpa asentuu mutta pääsee vain komentoriville. #linux #bsd #floss #atkjuttuja

  7. Rising from the Ashes: How #AlmaLinux and #RockyLinux Redefined the Post-#CentOS Landscape
    For over a decade, CentOS was the backbone of countless servers.
    That stability came to an end when #Red Hatpivoted CentOS to a rolling-release model, #CentOSStream. Instead of offering a downstream, binary-compatible version of #RHEL.
    This disruption created a vacuum, and the #Linux community quickly stepped up to fill it, and so were born AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux!

  8. The Best Boring #Benchmarks: #RockyLinux10 & #AlmaLinux10 Performance Against #RHEL10 Review
    Testing on an AMD EPYC 9755 2P (EPYC Turin) server and using the same hardware across all tests, the performance of #RockyLinux 10 and #AlmaLinux 10 were right on-par with #RedHat #EnterpriseLinux 10 itself. Hence the best kind of boring benchmarks when the performance is right on track for where it should be.

  9. As #RHEL clones hit version 10, Rocky and Alma chart diverging paths
    Take a quick look at the headline features – and the growing differences
    Perhaps the biggest and most obvious technological difference in this version is that #AlmaLinux offers a separate version for x86-64-v2 hardware. #RHEL10 itself, and Rocky with it, now require x86-64-v3, meaning Intel "Haswell"
    But you'd expect all the RHELatives to be similar. That remains their primary selling point.

  10. Rocky Linux 10, based on RHEL 10, released

    Following the release of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 and the AlmaLinux 10, yet another Red Hat-based Linux derivative distro, Rocky Linux, has just released a new version that is compatible with the tenth major version of RHEL. This sets a huge milestone for just another community version of the RHEL distribution. You can download this version of Rocky Linux here.

    Download now

    Rocky Linux 10, just like RHEL 10, requires the x86_64-v3 processor in order to run on modern computers. This is unlike AlmaLinux 10 that needed at least the x86_64-v2 processor. Also, Rocky Linux 10 no longer ships the 32-bit packages, which means that you will no longer to run 32-bit applications.

    For the desktop environment, this version of Rocky Linux now uses the Wayland server exclusively instead of the legacy X11 protocol. However, some of the applications that have not yet been ported to Wayland can now run using the Xwayland protocol.

    This version of Rocky Linux now supports the RISC-V architecture for users with such processor architecture. This is to make sure that computers that use a RISC-V processor be able to use Rocky Linux for the first time, expanding hardware support to the broader audience.

    The following architectures are supported:

    • 64-bit AMD/Intel x86-64-v3 (x86_64)
    • 64-bit RISC-V (riscv64)
    • 64-bit ARMv8.0-A (aarch64)
    • IBM POWER, little endian (ppc64le)
    • IBM z (s390x)

    The following common packages have been updated:

    • Dynamic programming languages, web, and database servers
      • PHP 8.3
      • Python 3.12
      • nginx 1.26
      • PostgreSQL 16.8
      • MySQL 8.4
      • Valkey 8.0
      • MariaDB 10.11
    • Performance tools and debuggers
      • GDB 14.2
      • Valgrind 3.23.0
      • SystemTap 5.1
      • Dyninst 12.3.0
      • elfutils 0.192
      • libabigail 2.6
    • Performance monitoring tools
      • Performance Co-pilot 6.3.0
      • Grafana 10.2.6
    • Compiler toolsets
      • LLVM Toolset 19.1.7
      • Rust Toolset 1.84.1
      • Go Toolset 1.23

  11. Running the cloud server for my website and my Forgejo instance on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 10 :redhat: now.

    (Previously on CentOS-Stream9 :centos:)

    Since I only have little load and want my infrastructure to consume as little energy as possible, I am running on an ARM64 (aarch64) system with Altara Ampere (Neoverse-N1) CPUs and on a shared hypervisor (Qemu/Kvm).

    RHEL10 does run perfectly fine and is supported on the ARM64 CPU architecure :-)

    All applications (my website, Forgejo, and a Keycloak instance) are running as rootless containers with Podman :podman:

    And of course, all my services are run IPv6 first!

    #linux #selfhosting #server #redhat #centos #rhel #rhel10 #devops #ipv6 #forgejo

  12. Just migrated my Cloud-Server at Netcup from CentOS-Stream 9 :centos: to Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 10 :redhat:

    Since all my workloads were containerized with Podman :podman: that was very simple to do:

    - Deploying new server in parallel
    - Stopping all containers
    - Moving the volumes and the systemd/quadlet files over to the new machine (/etc/containers/systemd)
    - Starting all containers on the new host
    - Updating DNS entries to new IP addresses
    - Decomissioning the old machine

  13. It seems Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 has been released. But what is new? The "release notes" ramble about "AI" and PQC, but... where are the actual release notes?!

  15. #CentOSStream 10 vs. #AlmaLinux 10 Beta vs. #RHEL 10 Beta Performance Benchmarks on AMD EPYC. #CentOSStream10 as upstream to #RedHat #EnterpriseLinux 10 is largely similar to what's found in the #RHEL10 beta but one of the key differences is being powered by #Linux 6.12 LTS rather than Linux 6.11. #CentOS Stream 10 tended to perform either on-par with AlmaLinux 10 and RHEL 10 or slightly ahead in some cases thanks to the slightly newer kernel and other software upgrades.

  16. #RedHat #EnterpriseLinux 10 Beta Performance Looks Great - Initial #RHEL 9 vs. #RHEL10 #Benchmarks
    #RHEL10Beta is on Linux 6.11 (though #CentOSStream 10 has moved to# Linux 6.12 LTS), GCC 14.2 is default compiler, XFS the default file-system, and there is a wealth of other package updates like moving to Python 3.12 by default and OpenJDK Java 21 as its default version. RHEL 10 also goes Wayland-only with GNOME Shell.
    10 Beta was on average 10% faster than current RHEL 9.5
