News

31 October 2019: The Antergos project has shut down and has turned off much of their infrastructure, including their website (which now redirects to Archive.org). As originally announced on 22 May 2019, we are removing our mirror of Antergos.

23 June 2019: We are continuing to monitor our hardware, but it seems the indicators of drive failure were false positives. Our current working theory is that other work in the datacenter may have disturbed a loose connection between the SATA HBA Card and the SATA backplane. We are currently experiencing possible failure of three (out of 14) hard drives. As of now, we are still operational (thanks to ZFS!!), and we are monitoring the situation.

18 October 2018: Added mirrors of Devuan Linux and Eclipse.
