What is Yellow Dog Linux?
An open source, Linux operating system for home, office, server, and cluster users. Built upon the RHEL/CentOS core, Fixstars has since the spring of 1999 developed and maintained YDL for the Power architecture family of CPUs. This focus and dedication has lead to the world's leading Linux for the Power architecture.

What is included?
Yellow Dog Linux combines a no non-sense graphical installer with support for a wide range of Power hardware, leading (but not bleeding) edge kernels and stable, functional compilers for code development. And of course, the foundation applications and servers expected for web, database, email, and network services. Greater than 2000 packages are included on the Install DVD.

A history of dedication and innovation.
Proven world-wide as the preferred Linux OS for the Power architecture, YDL v6.0 brings Fixstars into its 9th year of Power Linux operating system development and support. What's more, YDL v6.0 introduces a new level of multi-media support and functions with the latest Enlightenment window manager for a rich, dynamic, and powerful end user experience.
