A live demo of the latest developments in containerization on RHEL
Abstract
Last year, Christoph gave a presentation on CGroups and Containers
based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6 and what was then a beta
release of RHEL 7. Today, RHEL 7.1 is the current General Availability
(GA) release.
Christoph will give us a brief look at what's new, and then focus on
recent container, docker and RHEL Atomic technologies. The session will
include some slides, but will primarily be lead by live demo.

Boston Linux and Unix InstallFest LV Reminder Tomorrow, Saturday March 14, 2015
Boston Linux Installfest LIV
When: Saturday March 14, 2015, from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm
Where: MIT Building E-51, Room 061
2 Amherst St, Cambridge
Plenty of free parking in the parking lot in front of E-51.
http://mitiq.mit.edu/mitiq/directions_%20parkinge51.htm
Please note that Wadsworth Street is under construction. You can enter
Ames St from Memorial Drive, and take a right onto Amherst St.
What you need to bring: Your computer, monitor, power strips and your
Linux distributions. We do have copies of some distributions.
In general we have expertise with most distros, but if you need special
expertise, please email the BLU discussion list in advance. Today, most
distros are using Live CDs that you can try out and then install.
Additionally, CD images can be pushed onto USB sticks using various USB
creators.
COST: It's free! However, we DO have expenses, and contributions are
welcome. Please consider contributing $25 per machine.
Our volunteers will help you to install Linux on your own system. While
Linux runs on most systems, some systems do have configurations and
hardware that may not be supported. Please consult the following web
pages for hardware compatibility. While we prefer you to bring your own
distros, our volunteers will normally have
Linux Howto Pages: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/howtos.html
Linux Frequently Asked Questions: http://tldp.org/docs.html#faq
Additionally, there are forums and listservs for most distros.
Generally our volunteers have sets of the latest Fedora, SuSE and
Ubuntu distributions:
* Fedora - http://fedora.redhat.com (Fedora 20 DVD/Live CD/USB)
* Open SuSE - http://opensuse.org (OpenSuSE 13.2 - DVD/Live CD/)
* Ubuntu - http://www.ubuntu.com ( 14.04.1 DVD/USB)
We generally have them on local drives and can burn CDs/DVDs and
USBs.Since there are many variants of these distros, we advise you to
bring an empty USB stick with sufficient memory to hold one of the
distros. LiveCD images required under 1GB, full DVD images for Fedora
require about 4GB, and OpenSuSE needs 8GB. I usually have some USBs
prepared.
We generally have both a Wired and Wireless network available. The
wireless SSID at MIT is "MIT".
In addition, you can run Linux on your Windows PC through a virtual
machine manager, such as Virtualbox. You can install this in your
Windows machine and run Linux as a guest OS, or install it in your Linux
machine and run Windows as a guest. VirtualBox 4.2.6.
(http://www.virtualbox.org.) is free and is available for Linux, Windows
8, Windows 7, Windows XP and Windows Vista. Additionally, there are also
some VMWare clients that are also free for Windows.
Lunch is generously sponsored by Bluefin Technical Services, John Ross
and Ron Thibeau
Please refer to the BLU website (http://www.blu.org) for further
information and directions. Parking is free and available in front of
the building on Amherst St. Enter the building, and take the elevator to
your left down 1 floor. Room 061 is opposite the elevator.
