=== TurnKey Linux 11 released: 45 ready-to-use Ubuntu-based solutions ===

This week Turn``Key Linux announced part one of the Turn``Key Linux 11 release, spanning 45 ready-to-use, Ubuntu-based solutions which can be deployed in minutes to bare metal, virtual machines or launched on-demand in the cloud:

http://www.turnkeylinux.org/blog/turnkeylinux-11-part1

Highlights:

 * Upgraded base distribution to Ubuntu 10.04, the latest Ubuntu LTS (Long Term Support) release.

 * Includes TKLBAM: a smart, automated backup and restore facility, powered by the Amazon S3 storage cloud. The system is designed to make it easy to move or clone a Turn``Key system anywhere along with any changed files, databases, packages and users.

 * No default passwords: Users no longer have to worry about changing default passwords as Turn``Key now helps them configure all passwords on first boot.

 * LVM support: instead of installing to a fixed size partition, a Logical Volume is first created by default, and this may later be expanded, even across multiple physical devices.

 * Availability of Turn``Key AMIs (Amazon Machine Images) in the Amazon EC2 Asia pacific region also.

 * New ESX4 / vSphere optimized OVF builds.

 * 5 new appliances for Magento, Presta``Shop, Status``Net, vTiger and Joomla 1.6

Part two of the Turn``Key Linux 11 release is coming soon. It will more than double the size of the Turn``Key solutions library with the nearly 50 new virtual appliances that have been developed in collaboration with the open source community over the last year.
