What's on the CD

Linux

The CD is a modified version of the Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) live CD. The main modifications are:

  • All the software has been updated to the most recent version (as of Friday Oct 3rd 2008)
  • Openoffice, media codecs and other software not normally on the disk has been included.
  • OpenJDK 6 is included on this disk, as well as all the libraries used in first year java. These will be added to the default classpath.

Windows

When ran in windows the disk contains the sun java 6 installer, with modifications for first year java, as has been distributed by RedBrick in previous years. For instructions about how to use this installer see www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~receive/java/ You can also download the windows installer on it's own from this page.
