[Linux-ia64] New Red Hat Linux Beta Release for IA-64 available

[Bill Nottingham <notting@redhat.com>]

A new Red Hat Linux Beta Release for IA-64 is available.
This release is a port of Red Hat Linux 7. Remember, this
is a beta release  of Red Hat Linux for the IA-64. Not
everything may be working fully yet; remember, if it breaks,
you get to keep both pieces.

You can download it from:

   ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/ia64/

There is a mailing list to discuss the IA-64 release. To
subscribe, send mail to ia64-list-request@redhat.com with

in the subject line. You can leave the body empty.

Please report any problems to ia64-list, or through
bugzilla at:

   http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/

This release is based on the new toolchain release, and
glibc-2.2. Because of this:

 This release is INCOMPATIBLE with all previous Red Hat Linux
 development releases. Old binaries will not run. If they
 do, it is almost certainly an accident, and we will not
 support it.
 
It features glibc-2.2, a 2.4.0-test11 based kernel, XFree86-4.0.1a,
and the latest (000717-based) toolchain.

For more info, please see README.ia64 at the top level
of the CD.
