SL4 LiveCD+EPICS

English translation by N. Yamamoto)

Previously, I have remastered CD image for EPICS using KNOPPIX. For control systems, Linux distributions based on RedHat such as CentOS or Scientific Linux. I created LiveCD image for EPICS based on SL4. Please download the image from here. livecd-20070907A.iso(ç´„ 430MByte)

After the previous version, many useful packages were added and size of the image got larger. Please find the latest version here. SL4Live_for_Seminar.iso(about 650MBytes).

Reference links.

I mostly followed the imformation on PSI site, http://linux.web.psi.ch/livecd/ . Scirpts and kernel images downloded from this site were used to create the image.
