Downloads

Get ALT site

There's a special site dedicated to downloading ALT distributions, getalt.org; it focuses on those based on the latest stable branch (which is generally what one wants indeed).

Primary servers

These are toplevel locations, look for a current stable branch and images/ inside it, like p10/images:

• http://ftp.altlinux.org/pub/distributions/ALTLinux/
• ftp://ftp.altlinux.org/pub/distributions/ALTLinux/
• rsync://rsync.altlinux.org/ALTLinux/

Stable branch starter kits

• Starterkits form a collection of desktop/server oriented LiveCD, installer, and VM disk images

Beta versions

• beta.altlinux.org is where official distributions might get pre-released; we may publish alpha/beta images in directories which will become the official release locations in the process of rolling out a new stable branch, e.g. for workstation.

Regular builds

• These weekly snapshots are based on our development repository which is considered "unstable" (as in "several nasty days and a few nvidia blow-ups a year") but is surprisingly reliable in its league. Welcome to test but please prefer starterkits or distributions for deployment.
