Highlights

Since 6.6 Beta1 release:

• root and admin users passwords are no longer synchronized
• Delta RPMs from CentOS mirrors
• Dashboard Disk Analyzer
• Updates from Software center page
• Revised ISO installer

Read carefully the Release notes3, what has been changed and instructions about how to upgrade from the previous 6.5.

As usual, a new installation can begin from

• ISO, by erasing any existing data on the hard disk (!)
• network, on a previously installed CentOS 6.6 minimal

Starting from 6.6 release, NethServer installations contact CentOS mirrors directly to retrieve upstream updates. NethServer specific packages are served by mirror.netheserver.org and other NethServer mirrors.
