Free Oracle Enterprise Linux Downloads Now Also in DVD Format

By sergio.leunissen on November 17, 2008 9:32 AM

In a previous post, I mentioned that DVDs of Oracle Enterprise Linux are only availably for purchase via the Unbreakable Linux Store. I was incorrect. As of Oracle Enterprise Linux 4, Update 7, we now offer DVDs as a free download.

Sergio:

@Peter,

You are correct. EL4U7 is the first installation media set available as a DVD. From now on, we plan to make every release available as a DVD. I'll see if we have plans to update any previously released media sets.

Can you put links to the sites where they can be downloaded?

@Neo:

I assume you are looking for an Enterprise Linux 5 DVD? So far there is only an Enterprise Linux 4 Update 7 DVD (see the highlighted row in the image above). I'm told the Enterprise Linux 5 DVD will be made available very shortly.

JamIe Jamison:

The links for downloading the 5.2 DVD isos are broken. These links point to llnw.net and not Oracle. Could someone fix this?

Thanks,

Jamie Jamison

To all who want the DVD iso files,

I've just spotted that the Enterprise Linux 5 DVD ISO files (both 32 & 64 bit) can now be downloaded from http://edelivery.oracle.com/linux.

@Jamie:

llnw.net is run by a company we contract, Limelight Networks, to deliver certain content for us. You can verify that what you downloaded is what we produced by comparing the md5sum we post on edelivery.oracle.com

@hung-sheng tsao: I'm not sure why this is happening. All I can suggest is to try downloading from Linux or maybe with a download manager. My understanding is that, even with FAT32 filesystem on Windows, the limit you run into is 4Gb, not 2Gb.
