Congratulations to the Drupal community for getting version 7.0 released! This is a major mile stone and an excellent reason to celebrate!
If you want to give Drupal 7 a try without having to install anything, I've now updated my Drupal 7 appliances on SuSE Studio to the latest release. The appliance is based on openSUSE Linux 11.3 and is available in two variants:
- A text-mode only appliance to which you connect using your local web browser via the network.
- A GUI version that starts up the Firefox browser in a minimalistic GNOME desktop to perform the installation locally. Remote network access is available, too.
The appliance is available in various formats:
- A live raw disk image, ready to be written to an USB stick or flash drive
- A live ISO image, to be burned on a CD or used in a virtual machine
- A hard disk image, to be dumped on a hard disk drive
- Various virtual disk formats, e.g. OVF, VMWare/VirtualBox/KVM and Xen
So congratulations to the Drupal developer community for reaching this goal and thanks to SuSE/Novell/Attachmate for providing the infrastructure for creating such appliances. I also would like to especially thank Richard Bos for the testing and many suggestions for improvement of these appliances!
