Posted by Michael Larabel on December 22, 2006

The Fedora Project has finally pushed out their first official LiveCD. This LiveCD is based upon packages found in Fedora Core 6 (Zod) and from Fedora Extras. Among the packages are GNOME 2.16, Linux 2.6.18 kernel, X.Org 7.1, AIGLX and Compiz, and quite a few desktop applications. The Fedora LiveCD also features wallpaper not found in Fedora Core 6. The release announcement had just hit the fedora-announce-list moments ago.
