Any word on getting RL released after the source code fiasco? ---

It will be released when it’s ready. > [@ETA on Rocky Linux 9.3?](https://forums.rockylinux.org/t/eta-on-rocky-linux-9-3/11816/2): > > We do not put out ETA’s as anything can happen in the build process. We generally aim for at least a week after upstream has released, even when we are completely done building. For the record, we are done building packages. It is now a matter of composing everything. Be that as it may, I am cautious in still providing any sort of ETA. Please see our wiki for more information on our releases. ---

Just glad to know that the question is when instead of whether. No rush to get it. ---

I just visited the 9.3 download page and saw that there is a Boot ISO option now, that’s new if I’m not mistaken. I have built some boxes using Oracle Linux 9 to run Security Onion and really like their boot ISO. It fits on a DVD and installs the core system and immediately downloads and installs all the other stuff to make a functional server running the Gnome GUI. That’s really great if you’re using boxes that flatly refuse to boot from flash disks, as I am. Previous RL installs involved booting the minimal ISO then enabling all the repos and installing by hand. I assume (and hope) the RL boot ISO works the same way. ---

The boot.iso is a normal part of all of our releases, as we need it to generate the minimal and dvd images. We have boot images that go all the way back to our first official release of 8.4. It is guaranteed that there will always be a boot iso provided on each release. ---

Hmm I guess I didn’t know what I was doing previously. Boy I could have saved much hassle had I known. Well I won’t be doing any more minimal installs. ---

These days I do always choose “minimal” regardless of whether I boot with “DVD”, “Minimal”, or “Boot” image or with PXE boot. With or without kickstart file. What I do then is in _Ansible playbook_. It does all the things that I could have done by hand. Better yet, as things evolve, I can update the play and run it again. That keeps config of every managed machine up to date. Ansible is not the only _configuration management system_, but it is included in the distro and Red Hat documents examples for RHEL. ---
