Earlier this week CentOS, our favorite Linux distribution, released testing build of version 7.0. We have made CentOS 7.0 available for all of our Linux VPS instances. The new CentOS 7.0 Testing release is selectable from the Reinstall section of the VPS Panel, and can also be selected for setup of new instances (we don’t recommend choosing CentOS 7.0 for production servers yet). We’re happy to report that the el7 system is working flawlessly on our platform: As an additional bonus, we have updated several build templates, with new build options now available for Linux VPS instances:
- CentOS 7.0 Testing (64-bit)
- CentOS 6.5 with GNOME (VNC Remote Desktop)
- Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with Xfce (VNC Remote Desktop)
- Ubuntu 14.04 with Xfce (VNC Remote Desktop)
- Slackware 14.1
All of these builds are available for new and existing VPS instances. Try a CentOS 7 VPS, Ubuntu VPS with remote desktop, or Slackware VPS!
