Fedora Core 5 Test 2 Red Hat has made available today Fedora Core 5 Test 2 (FC5T2). Test 2 is a series of development releases in the way to Fedora Core 5, which at last report is scheduled to be released on March 15, 2006 while FC5T3 should make its debut on February 13. Of course, all of these release dates are tentative as Fedora 5 had already been delayed once, along with FC5T2, after some development snafus with SELinux. Fedora Core 5 Test 2 is presently available from many of their mirrors and is available on a 5 CD set for each of the supported architectures. It is interesting to see the move from four to five CDs as Stentz (4), Heidelberg (3), and Tettnang (2) have all used a four CD collection, and lately the Fedora developers have attempted to eliminate some of the similar packages in its collection for both KDE and GNOME. Some of the packages making their way into the second testing release for FC5 is KDE v3.5.0, GNOME v2.13.4, Linux 2.6.15 kernel, and X.Org v7.0. Of course, we are greatly anticipating the public release of Fedora Core 5. Tomorrow we will be delivering an array of screenshots at Phoronix, and a small feature at pyroCPU in regards to the updated Anaconda installer found in Fedora 5.
