Posted by gigatux, 05-24-2012, 07:00 AM London, 23rd May 2012. GigaTux is proud to announce the immediate availability of a new Linux distribution, Mageia 2, on its VPS hosting platform.
GigaTux is the first VPS provider to offer Mageia 2 for automatic installs on any VPS system and this has been confirmed as running in a very stable manner on GigaTux's Xen platform. Deployments are automatically performed using the DTC control panel interface, which GigaTux have patched to enable support for Mageia.
Mageia 2 was released on 22nd May 2012 and is the second stable release of the community distribution that was originally forked from Mandriva Linux. The Mageia organisation is completely community-driven with no commercial oversight dictating its future. As a fork of Mandriva, a long-standing distribution with a huge community of users, every feature expected of a Linux distribution is available. Originally, Mageia was forked because of the uncertainty surrounding the future of the Mandriva distribution, but now it has grown into its own solid distribution in this second release.
Mageia 2 is immediately available for deployment on GigaTux's Linux hosting servers in the UK (London), USA (San Jose and Chicago) and Germany (Frankfurt). All servers run on Xen with hard disks in a RAID-10 configuration and two Intel Xeon CPUs each.
