Drupal is a highly modular opensource content management platform that can support a variety of websites ranging from personal blogs, corporate brochures and large community-driven websites.
Drupal 6 includes many improvements over Drupal 5 including an automatic facility to check for updates, built-in OpenID support, better polls support, a more advanced forum system, email notifications, and much more.
The TurnKey Drupal 6 appliance is an easy-to-use, lightweight, installable live CD with Drupal 6.x, which can run on real hardware in addition to most types of virtual machines.
It features a MacOS X themed web management interface and a new configuration and installation console written in Python.
It is based on Ubuntu 8.04.1 Hardy LTS and is designed to provide users with a pre-integrated, auto-updating, turn-key operating system environment that is carefully built from the ground up with the minimum components needed to run Drupal 6 with maximum usability, efficiency and security.
TurnKey Drupal is part of TurnKey Linux, an opensource project that aims to develop high-quality opensource software appliances that are easy to use, easy to deploy, and free. Our motto is "everything that can be easy, should be easy!"
