What's new in BlueOnyx 5208R Beta 1 Build 20140717

Aug 1, 2014
  • BlueOnyx 5207R and 5208R are already in productive usage on several important servers of our own and have been since the late Alpha stage. So far the most critical bugs are gone, but there are always some things that are hard to spot as usage cases and scenarios differ.
  • It is possible to upgrade an existing BlueOnyx 5107R or 5108R to the new GUI. The mechanism for that involves just installing the new "blueonyx-yumconf" RPM, doing a "yum update" and running the script /usr/sausalito/sbin/SSL_fixer.pl as root from SSH.
  • However: If you have any third party software (from the BlueOnyx Shop, Solarspeed Shop or Compass Networks Shop) installed on your BlueOnyx, then you should not yet perform such an upgrade. Please wait until we have released updated versions of the PKGs that are ready for BlueOnyx 5207R and BlueOnyx 5208R. Otherwise you will loose the GUI pages for managing the third party software until the time that updated PKGs for the third party software become available.

New in BlueOnyx 5.6-20110621 (Jun 24, 2011)

  • The ISO from 18th June works fine, although with 721MB it was a bit too large to fit on a CD. We trimmed off some fat by removing the PXE-boot related images and files from the ISO, which most users won't need anyway. That brings the new CD down to 671MB, which should make it fit on a 700MB CD again.
