CentOS Linux 7.5.1804: The CentOS operating system is developed by an open source collaboration community. Typically, CentOS users are companies and individuals who do not need strong commercial support for their operating system.
CentOS is a 100% compatible rebuild Red Hat Enterprise Linux, which fully complies with Red Hat distribution requirements. CentOS is for those who need stability in a business class operating system without the cost of certification and support.
From 2014, Red Hat funds CentOS, allowing the development team to maintain its open-source character.
CentOS 7 is a great choice for home use, even on a laptop that isn't Linux friendly. It will work flawlessly despite the challenges. Addressing the challenges is also the downside of CentOS, as it lacks Red Hat support Enterprise Linux.
Red Hat released it Red Hat Enterprise Linux RHEL 7.5 10May 2018. Of course, as I had mentioned, since then I have been waiting (and probably all friends of the distro) for the upcoming CentOS 'Release Point', meaning the major release of a distribution (in this case CentOS Linux 7) to update 5 from source Red Hat code.
Today it seems the day I expected:
The CentOS repositories contain all the updated packages for version 7.5.1804 as well as the official ISO images for the full installation of distribution.
Yes, Karanbir Singh announced today the release of CentOS 7.5.1804, the latest update of the CentOS 7 series. The new version is based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.5 and includes many bug fixes.
I am pleased to announce the general availability of CentOS Linux 7 (1804) for all architectures. This is the current version of CentOS Linux 7 that has been labeled as 1804, coming from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.5. As usual, we provide it releasenotes with important information about new traffic.
